Beginning Contemporary
Description
In this imaginative and expressive class, young dancers will explore the foundations of contemporary dance through creative movement, storytelling, and age-appropriate technique. Students will learn how to connect emotion with movement while developing coordination, balance, and musicality. Class activities include floor work, basic improvisation, and fun choreography set to inspiring music. This is the perfect class for dancers who love to move freely, explore new ways of expressing themselves, and begin building the skills they'll use in more advanced contemporary styles.

Attire: Black leotard (tank or spaghetti straps), Black Jazz pants/leggings, Black boy shorts optional (must wear flesh colored convertible tights), Tan split-sole shoes, and slip on Jazz shoes. Hair must be pulled away from the face. Class attire information can be found on the Parish Extend website: https://parishplus.org/programs/parishextend/dance-academy/
