Course programme
Course Content
Dance classes exploring a fluid form of movement expression combined with limbering, stretching and toning. Fusing together some of the key contemporary dance styles and influences from Graham, Cunningham, Humphrey and Release technique, the class involves learning original and innovative dance sequences and travelling combinations.
General level dance classes cater for either the young dance student studying dance at GCSE or A level or the mature dancer wanting to learn an expressive dance style.
Advanced level contemporary dance classes are more challenging for the adept technician and performer.
