Alabama School of Fine Arts

The ASFA Dance Department is a pre-professional training program reflective of the 21st century and the call for a more open learning environment. Rooted in research-based kinesiology, the curriculum is grounded in the philosophy of the Revolutionary Principles of Movement (RPM). RPM’s inclusive nature creates an empowering setting that amplifies individual voices to become kinetically aware movers and critically thinking dance artists. Multiple dance forms, repertoire, and somatic practice round out the class offerings, and a registered physical therapist and nutritionist are on staff. Juniors and seniors take a professional dance practicum, which includes dance history, composition, a broad survey of the field investigating career and higher education opportunities, and essential elements of production. Senior year culminates in a unique student-created and choreographed performance.
