MODERN DANCE CLASSES

Modern dance begins for the inspired dancer at Concordia Arts Academy for the young and more advanced dancer.  Modern combines theatrical and contemporary, while developing the use of the entire body in movements expressive of abstract ideas. All modern dancers at Concordia must take ballet and are encouraged to take other dance forms as well.  Madison Hopkins, our modern director is trained in many classical forms of modern including, but not limited to, Martha Graham, Horton and received a full scholarship to Tennessee Governor’s School for the Arts.  She also studied dance at Giordano Jazz Dance Chicago, and Florida State University.  See our dance schedule here:  https://www.concordiaartsacademy.com/schedule/
