Contemporary Dance developed during the middle portion of the twentieth century, borrowing techniques from classical ballet, modern and jazz to become one of the dominating performance genres for formally trained dancers across the world. 

 

At VMA Dance we offer Contemporary Dance classes for ages 6+. In our Junior classes, we focus on learning basic contemporary techniques and allowing students to develop their own expressive style. In our Senior and Teen classes, we build on these foundations to develop a stronger technique, including use of breathe and style while focusing on the performance elements. Whether it is telling a story through dance or expressing an emotion, students at VMA Dance will learn how to enjoy and master Contemporary Dance.

​

Our Senior & Teen students will have the opportunity to take BTDA medal tests and perform at many events including local fêtes and our annual show.
