Ready to take your dance skills to the next level? 

Adult Intermediate Contemporary Dance is for people looking to take a step up to improve their dance skills and are ready to take a deeper dive into contemporary dance and performance!

The first half of the class focuses on an active warm-up to prepare your body, followed by dynamic and physically engaging centre work inspired by Cunningham and release techniques.

These tools help dancers develop control, expand their range of movement, travel with efficiency and secure a safe practice.
