Dance 1 and Dance 2

Dance 1 and Dance 2 introduce the history, terminology, and significant contributions of individuals to various dance styles and movements. These sections build the fundamentals needed to explore the artistic process of dance in Dance 3 & 4. Long time dancers can bypass Dance 1 and move into Dance 2 through an audition process with West Dance Teachers demonstrating competency in dance vocabulary for ballet, jazz, contemporary, & hip hop.

Audition information will be shared with feeder dance programs in the spring semester.
