Thursday 5:00-6:00PM
Modern/Contemporary (age 11+): Modern dance is more experimental than classical ballet. This class explores an understanding of the movements of the spine, expanded dance vocabulary, alignment, and musicality through full-bodied choreographic phrases.
Movement vocabulary draws from an influence of Limon and Cunningham (American modern dance legacies), and contemporary styles. The class will expand the dancer's qualitative range and investigate nuance and detail for greater depth in performance. No previous experience with these styles is necessary, although some dance experience will help the student to feel more comfortable learning choreographic material and remembering longer movement phrases.
