Description

The Bachelor of Arts in Dance is for developing artists seeking a broad and rich background in both theory and practice. The degree is designed to foster the skills, understanding, and discipline of our developing dance artists. Our faculty are united in their dedication to teaching each student as an individual. We take pride in keeping our classes small to provide this type of differentiated feedback. Our robust B.A. in Dance curriculum includes intensive training in ballet, modern/contemporary dance, and composition classes through a lens of Cultural Competency and Advocacy; complemented by improvisation, dance history, kinesiology, pedagogy, Hip Hop styles, African American concert dance history, Jazz, conditioning for performing artists, and yoga. Throughout the year our dance majors have up to seven unique performance opportunities. Based in Mindfulness practices, our nurturing, yet rigorous, environment offers our dance majors many transformative experiences to develop their unique artistry. Our graduating students leave prepared technically and creatively to pursue work in dance and related areas.
