ISTD Latin American Dance Faculty – Jive Syllabus is designed to complement the official ISTD technique books by providing visual demonstrations of the complete Jive syllabus.
Each syllabus figure is demonstrated step by step, showing how the movement is constructed and performed with correct technique. The figures are presented both with and without music, allowing students to study timing, lead, shaping, styling, and movement quality. Where appropriate, alternative endings and developments are also demonstrated to support syllabus training and examination preparation.
This program is a practical reference for dance teachers, examination candidates, and competitors studying the official ISTD Jive syllabus.
