About Contemporary Classes at Gotta Dance Company

Contemporary dance is a style of expressive dance that combines elements of several dance genres including modern, jazz, lyrical and classical ballet. Contemporary dancers strive to connect the mind and the body through fluid dance movements.
Contemporary dance stresses versatility and improvisation, unlike the strict, structured nature of ballet. Contemporary dancers focus on floorwork, using gravity to pull them down to the floor. This dance genre is often done in bare feet, and can be performed to many different styles of music. This type of dance allows dancers to have freedom of movement, allowing their bodies to freely express their innermost feelings.
Gotta Dance Company offers beginning, intermediate, and advanced contemporary dance classes for students ages 7 and up at our Peoria dance studio. If you are unsure of the appropriate level of contemporary dance classes your dancer should join, give us a call and we will help you select the most appropriate class for your dancer.
