Contemporary dance allows the students to experience a freedom of movement quite different from any other style.
Our open classes assure every class is fresh and exciting and tailored to our three levels; Beginners, Intermediate, and seniors. Each class begins with a warm-up, across the floor movement, and finishes with choreography.
In terms of the focus of its technique, contemporary dance tends to combine the strong and controlled legwork of ballet and jazz, powerful allegro (Jumps), floor work, stress on the torso with contract-release, controlled and uncontrolled movement with fall and recovery, and freedom of improvisation movement.
Contemporary is very free in its diverse styles of movement; from grounded, African inspired, athletic, harsh, to smooth, classically controlled, to commercialized modern-inspired movement. This diversity of movement within the class inspires, excites and keeps every class fun whilst challenging the students to find body awareness through exploring unusual shapes and changing dynamics.
SCPAC offers capped classes for all styles of dance, to ensure each child gets the individual attention they require. Capped classes ensure for an optimal teaching environment. This guarantees the students’ needs are continuously being met to a high-quality standard.
Our studios are fully air-conditioned, equipped with wooden sprung flooring, professional barres, and full-length mirrors. For the comfort of our students, we have a student lounge, dining and study area, as well as change rooms and showers. For your convenience, we also have a dance and theatrical supplies store, and parent viewing areas.
This style works with the body’s natural lines and energy, and dancers develop a greater range and fluidity of movement.
Students are given a class each week on some of the main streams of Contemporary Technique from qualified Contemporary Teachers and Professionals.
An earthy dance style, Contemporary Dance combines techniques from several dance genres, including Modern, Jazz, Lyrical and Classical Ballet and naturalistic movement. Contemporary dancers strive to connect the mind and body through fluid dance movement.
