Course Details

Contemporary dance is a dance performance 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.

If you were to ask a dance teacher today to describe contemporary, you could well be faced with words such as modern, jazz-like, loose, expressive; not formal or rigid.

This class has over the past few years developed into a very popular class. It is freedom of expression, includes great technique gained from ballet and emotion whilst dancing. Contemporary dance is an ‘anything goes’ genre.

Rather than a specific dance technique, contemporary dance is a collection of systems and methods developed mainly from modern and postmodern dance.
