Contemporary

contemporary dance style is a style of expressive dance that combines elements of several  dance genres including modern ,jazz, lyrical and classical ballet. Contemporary dancers strive to connect the mind and the body through fluid dance movements . This dance genre is of often done in bare feet.

Earlier contemporary dance referred to the movement of new dancers who did not want to follow strict classical ballet and lyrical dance forms. but instead wanted to explore the area of revolutionary unconventional movements that were gathered from all dance styles.

Contemporary dances therefore do not use fixed moves and instead try to develop totally new forms and dynamics. Dancer who introduced and greatly popularized the contemporary dance to the worldwide audience was Maratha Graham.


Contemporary dance is like when you are performing  it you are going deep in  it no other thoughts enters into your mind. you just concentrate on that particular point .The moves in contemporary dance are very different  from other dance styles and the thing which is important in contemporary is concentration and expressions.
