Contemporary dance is a style of expressive dance that combines elements of several dance genres including jazz and classical ballet. Originally, "contemporary dance" referred to the movement of new dancers who did not want to follow strict classical ballet and lyrical dance forms.
Contemporary is a dance form that grew and evolved with modern art movements. It has less strict form than ballet and exists in the ‘now’ with many personal expressions of form and possibility.
Contemporary Dance Lessons are offered by Starstruck Dance and Cheerleading Academy Pakenham. Our state of the art facility in Pakenham is one of Australia's best and your children will have the time of their lives learning from our highly trained and welcoming coaches!
The genre of Contemporary Dance is a blend of ballet and modern dance. It builds a strong centre and combines precision leg work with fluidity of the torso. Contemporary dance encourages self-expression, natural movement and personal interpretation.
Designed by ex-Ballet dancers this style is still technical but with much more focus on rounded shapes, floorwork, grounded movements, and expressiveness. Unlike the “prettier” Ballet style, Contemporary Dance can be unexpected and unusual but is still powerful and captivating.
