Contemporary dance is an expressive style of dance that utilizes elements of different dance genres including modern, jazz, lyrical and classical ballet. It doesn’t have fixed or established movement patterns but it’s rather in a continuous search for new forms and dynamics

Contemporary dance is based on ballet techniques, but is more free-spirited. Dancers explore emotions, and use their that to portray personal expression in their dance techniques. Some dancers wear half soles that support the ball of the foot, while others are barefoot.
