Decidedly Jazz Danceworks

DJD was founded to re-ignite the traditional values of jazz dance. Despite firm roots and a rich history, jazz dance had lost its connections to jazz music and to the vital spirit of the form by the 80’s.
In 1984, Vicki Adams Willis, Michèle Moss, and Hannah Stilwell joined forces to offer a concert dance opportunity to dancers seeking to steward a new era of jazz dance for the world.
