This class is a beginning contemporary dance class. Contemporary dance is not a technique such as ballet or modern. It borrows from ballet, it is a hybrid modern and jazz style. It utilizes strength, flexibility, big jumps and turns. What makes contemporary dance appealing to the dancer is it gives the freedom to interpret song. Ballet and modern dance technique are strongly encouraged as it will build a stronger dancer.
