• Dance is the most fundamental of the arts, using the body as a tool for expression and communication. By studying the art form of dance, students learn the most basic form of communication through the body and develop a physical and aesthetic base for understanding themselves and their relationship to their physical/intellectual and spiritual world.

    Classes in Beginning Modern Dance consist of a series of technical exercises that condition the body for strength, flexibility, endurance and coordination; develop a physical and conceptual awareness of the elements of space, time and energy; and exhibit performance skills of concentration, focus and musicality. Lectures on human anatomy and dance terminology will also be included in this course.
