Modern Dance
Modern dance is a concert dance form that arose out of ballet in the early 20th century. Our classes are accompanied by live music and draw from a variety of classical and contemporary techniques. Students begin with a warm-up that combines floorwork and standing center exercises, focusing on skill-building with proper technique, musicality, and spinal articulation; followed by sequencing steps in the center and across the floor, as well as the development of improvisation and composition skills.
Registration for Children and Teen Programs are now open to the general public. Join our email list to receive email alerts about registration.
