The dance program at Mason Gross School of the Arts fosters excellence in modern dance technique, performance, and creative achievement. An accomplished dance faculty of artist-educators ensures expert instruction in technique, performance, choreography, and theoretical studies.
In addition to a strong grounding in dance technique, the program assumes that to succeed as professional artists, students must be articulate about aesthetic values and knowledgeable about the practical demands of a career in dance. Theoretical work begins with a study of contemporary issues in dance and continues with music for movement, dance production, notation, kinesiology for dancers, and dance history. Dance electives and opportunities for independent study allow each student to achieve her or his own particular artistic aspirations. Department of Dance contacts:
