Modern

Students begin modern at 6 years old. This is a graded class following the IDTA or ISTD syllabus. Both syllabi require the student to show strength and flexibility whilst at the same time fluidity and co-ordination of movement. Limbering and strength are part of both syllabi, togehter with learning about music and its relevance to Dance is part of every class. This gradually develops into more advanced work where pupils experience a great sense of ‘freedom’ when their bodies are supple and have the strength to execute the work.
