Tuesday Intermediate Contemporary
Contemporary dance is the exploration of the total movement potential of the body. Contemporary is not bound by set standards, as well as defined styles such as ballet or jazz. Instead, it seeks to express a personalized vision, often through experimentation and collaboration for the development of new, more individualized approaches to the moving body and choreographic possibilities. It does not refuse classical ballet’s leg technique in favor of modern’s stress on the torso, while it also employs contract-release, floor work, fall and recovery, and improvisation characteristic of modern dance. Must be enrolled in a level 4 or 5 ballet class

Please discuss class placement with the director prior to registration to ensure your dancer is in the best class for them.

Tuesday Intermediate Contemporary
Contemporary dance is the exploration of the total movement potential of the body. Contemporary is not bound by set standards, as well as defined styles such as ballet or jazz. Instead, it seeks to express a personalized vision, often through experimentation and collaboration for the development of new, more individualized approaches to the moving body and choreographic possibilities. It does not refuse classical ballet’s leg technique in favor of modern’s stress on the torso, while it also employs contract-release, floor work, fall and recovery, and improvisation characteristic of modern dance. Must be enrolled in a level 4 or 5 ballet class

Please discuss class placement with the director prior to registration to ensure your dancer is in the best class for them.
