Modern Dance is the big umbrella under which various dance styles fall – each of which we incorporate in our classes (Jazz, Show Dance, Musical Theatre, Contemporary and Lyrical dance) to name a few.
Modern Dance is the big umbrella under which various dance styles fall – each of which we incorporate in our classes (Jazz, Show Dance, Musical Theatre, Contemporary and Lyrical dance) to name a few. The S.A.B.O.D syllabus which was established in 1935 (although it was first named S.A.D.T.A) is followed.
This syllabus creatively incorporates all the abovementioned styles as well as some key elements and disciplines of Classical Ballet. It grants the dancer an opportunity to get a taste of each style. The S.A.B.O.D syllabus is one of the very few Modern dance syllabi in South Africa that is internationally recognized. Affiliated with the IDO, we are also permitted to receive National colours and compete on an International level.
The syllabus is efficiently structured into grades, Creative Movement (3-4 year olds), Tiny Tots (5-6 year olds), Grade 1 up until Grade 12. For each of these grades a national examination is held. Exams are, however, not compulsory, but they are highly recommended.
Dancers are slotted into grades according to their dance abilities and not necessarily their age. In other words, Grades 1 to 12 does not necessarily correspond with school grades, as more than one grade can be examined per year.
Some dance classes even have an age span of up to three years as ability varies. If a dancer has been examined on all levels, such dancer can then complete the Pre-Associate and Associate exams if he/she wishes to pursue a career as a dance teacher or professional choreographer.
