CONTEMPORARY

NEW THIS YEAR!

Ages 10 & up

Contemporary is an expressive and creative dance style that blends elements of Ballet, Jazz, Lyrical, and modern dance. This class encourages dancers to explore movement, emotion, musicality, and storytelling while continuing to build strong technique and body awareness.

Students will work on skills such as floor work, weight shifts, balance, control, contractions, release, improvisation, dynamics, and fluid transitions. Contemporary dance allows dancers to move in a way that is both technical and personal, helping them connect more deeply to the music and express themselves through movement.

This class is a great choice for dancers who enjoy creativity, emotion, and exploring different movement qualities. Contemporary helps students develop strength, flexibility, coordination, confidence, and artistry while encouraging individuality and self-expression in a supportive class environment.
