It's not 'required,' as you will stretch and become more flexible!. You definitely need more flexibility for jazz than tap!. Stretch every day and you will become flexible in no time! Good luck, and hope I helped! :)Www@QuestionHome@Com

Most of the time, yes!.

You need flexibility to do the pike jumps, splits of various positions, and stag jumps in jazz dancing!.

Flexibility is not really required in tap, but you need stamina in your ankle and foot muscles to do tap dancing without tiring yourself!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Well not so much tap as jazz and if you are in a beginner jazz class it usually dosen't matter so much!.!.!.also most jazz classes start with a stretch :D You don't HAVE to be flexible but it will just make you better and by taking the class you will gain flexibility anywaysWww@QuestionHome@Com
