What is History and Evolution of Jazz Dance about?

Jazz dance originated from African dances brought over to North America in the 1840s. It grew in popularity in the 1920s during the Jazz Age. Important early jazz dancers and choreographers included Jack Cole, Katherine Dunham, Luigi, Gus Giordano, and Matt Mattox. Their styles helped establish the techniques of modern jazz dance.
