Contemporary

Contemporary dance is a versatile and expressive style that blends elements of ballet, modern dance, and other techniques. It encourages creativity and freedom of movement, allowing dancers to explore new ways of expressing themselves. At Renton Dance Studio, our contemporary classes are open to students aged 11 and up, offering a fun and dynamic way to develop both technique and artistry. Our dancers have the opportunity to showcase their skills at the All England Dance Festival and in various shows throughout the year, giving them plenty of chances to perform and grow as artists.

Contemporary dance is a great starting point for new dancers. It offers a lot of flexibility and encourages improvisation and free movement. In our contemporary classes, students get to explore their own style and creativity, learning how to express themselves through dance in a way that feels natural. The emphasis on improvisation helps build confidence, making contemporary a welcoming and enjoyable experience for those new to dance.

what our students say

I’ve been taking contemporary classes at Renton for 6 years, the support and encouragement I’ve received from my teacher Olivia helped me to truly understand the art of contemporary. What makes contemporary so beautiful and special to me is how I can channel both the music and my emotions and express it in my dancing.
