"Modern" dance is an American art form that has a rich history of rebellion, self expression, and athletic dancers with the ability to have control of their body. Modern dancers are barefoot and often channel ballet in their choreography but also almost any other style, requiring their dancers to be athletic.
The main focus of technique class is alignment, retention, and building stamina for across-the-floor variations, adagio, jumps, floor work, and ultimately, repertoire. This class will not have time to formally delve into "post-modern dance," but advanced class repertoire and modern music styles may occasionally be used for choreography to encourage dancers toward a wide range of applications.

Included in tuition for all classes is a chance to perform at our Lecture Demonstration Performance.
