Contemporary (50+) | Advanced

Artistic. Energising. Technical.

An energetic and inspiring contemporary dance class for experienced movers aged 50+. Designed for those with a solid foundation in contemporary dance, this class offers dynamic movement phrases, technical challenges, and creative exploration.

Led by an experienced teacher, sessions include a thorough warm-up, focused technique work, and expressive choreography to deepen your artistry, musicality, and physical confidence. Modifications are available, but the pace and content are suited to dancers ready to push themselves further.

We encourage you to have a minimum of 2 years experience in Contemporary before joining this class. We also offer an Open Contemporary class.

If you are unsure which level is appropriate for you, please don’t hesitate to contact our friendly Box Office team on 01473 295230 who would be happy to advise.
