MODERN THEATRE DANCE
mtd.jpeg

Modern dance is often seen on the stages of musical productions and is known for its theatrical qualities. The style uses travelling steps, high kicks, leaps and turns which all need strength and flexibility. This is a highly energetic dance style.

Our graded modern dance classes cover the building blocks of the style, from limbering and strengthening exercises to fun dance movements, including isolations, turns, kicks, and leaps.

Modern Theatre dance is a rhythmic dance style which originated in America before travelling to the rest of the world. This style combines jazz, lyrical, and contemporary dance, focusing on rhythm, isolation, and expression.

 

Classes will also cover preparation for Modern Theatre examinations from Primary through to Advanced 2 level.
