NUS Jazzttitude:
NUS Jazzttitude is a Street Jazz dance group known for their fun and friendly environment. Founded in 2006, Jazzttitude specialises in Street Jazz which fuses the technicalities and elegance of Jazz dance with the groove of Street dance. Their name comes from two words, ‘Jazz’ and ‘Attitude’ as Jazzttitude emphasises on the importance of attitude – having the passion and heart for dance. Jazzttitude aims to nurture confident dancers by creating a familial environment that encourages self-growth and improvement, both as dancers and people. Their dancers undergo technique training weekly along with open classes, internal showcases and annual concerts that push Jazzttitude’s dancers to grow and excel in their technique, choreography, and performance skills.
