Contemporary dance is a genre that developed during the mid twentieth century and has since grown to become one of the dominant genres for formally trained dancers throughout the world.
Although originally developed by borrowing from classical and jazz styles, it has since come to incorporate elements from many styles of dance. Due to its technical similarities, it is often
perceived to be closely related to jazz and ballet while still being it’s very own unique genre.
Evolve teaches a Contemporary syllabus that was developed by Anne Dewy for the New Zealand Association of Modern Dance.
At Evolve we teach the New Zealand Association of Modern Dance syllabus for Hip Hop, Jazz, Ballet, Tap and Contemporary. This syllabus taught correctly can give pupils the skills to pursue a career in dance both in New Zealand and abroad.
It challenges children of all abilities and helps lay the foundations necessary for a career in dance while also catering for children who may be looking for a physical outlet and just love to dance.
Both international and New Zealand choreographers have come together to create hundreds of exercises and dancers that are taught across the country. At Evolve we love to support New Zealand owned and operated companies and the New Association of Modern Dance embodies all the values we wish to instill in our pupils.
