Our Contemporary Dance program is unique and highly structured. 

Our program is based on the system of dance training created by Martha Graham and Doris Humphrey/Limon. The classes follow a set curriculum. Students develop strong technique, an emotive connection to dancing, coordination, flexibility and strength.
