Modern

6th through 12th grades

In modern class, dancers will explore how the body moves and the "why" behind movement.  At Out of His Mind Dance, students are exposed to Graham, Horton, and Hawkins techniques.  Students will experience a deeper understanding of breath and spatial awareness through floor work, inversions, and weight sharing activities.  Self-expression and improvisation play a larger role in modern, asking students to bring more of their creativity into the classroom.  Modern is an ideal class for older students wishing to begin their dance journey, and for established dancers wishing to expand their understanding of performance.
