Students build technique alongside artistry as improvisations, floor work, rhythmical phrasing, and combinations become more challenging and complex. Dancers create using the Elements of Dance and choreographic forms and devices. Through analysis, evaluation, self-reflection, and guided feedback, students refine choreographic intent as they gain confidence in their own creative voice.

  • Dress for comfort and ease of movement. Dance clothes such as leotards, footless tights, sweatpants/shorts, leggings, stretch pants, t-shirts, dance skirts, etc. Hair should be pulled back from the face. Students dance in bare feet.
