Authentic Jazz Weekend Level D - Dawn Hampton

Level D as in "Dawn Hampton" 

The Dawn level is for dancers who have danced solo jazz for many years and very likely also taught it. You have choreographed routines, performed, maybe competed, and/or been to many solo jazz workshops, most probably some of them outside WCJ.

You are always looking for new dance challenges and enjoy working on small technical details. You can imagine working with improvisation in front of a whole class. You will only have external teachers. 

facts about…

Dawn was an American cabaret and jazz singer, saxophonist, dancer and songwriter. She was one of twelve children born and raised in a traveling carnival. Her career started at the age of three in the family band. When Dawn moved to New York City in 1958, she began her solo career, including work in off-Broadway theater performances and swing dancing in Hollywood films.

Dawn continued to perform as a dancer and teacher during the renewed interest in swing dancing during the 2000s and traveled worldwide to share her spirit. “To dance, you need to feel the beat”. Dawn passed away in 2016, and many of us met her during her stays at Herräng Dance Camp, where she visited for many years until the last years of her life. The light is on!
