200+ Songs for Beginner Jazz Dance Class & Recital (Ages 4-8 Years old)

Here is the playlist I use when teaching jazz (or tap) to beginners ages 4 to 8 years old. Please note that all of these songs use clean language.

This playlist includes a combination of popular songs the kids will know, energetic instrumentals, classic jazz dance hits, and everything in-between. These songs can be used for warming up, combinations, recital dances, and across-the-floor exercises.
