Jazz dance has roots in African-American culture and found popularity in the swing era of the 1930s and the 1940s. Jazz dance was an evolution of tap dancing, which was used in many minstrel shows and vaudeville performances. Jazz dance also incorporated influences from ballroom dancing, as well as Caribbean and African dances.
