Contemporary dance is the exploration of total movement potential of the body. At Dance Central we follow the Rambert Grades Contemporary syllabus which has eight pioneering grades in Creative Contemporary Dance, each with three learning strands: Technical, Creative, and Performance, designed to build essential skills for contemporary dance. We offer a number of classes in this style for ages 8 and above.
