Contemporary & lyrical
in Bunbury.
Floor work, weight and release, and real storytelling through movement.
Lyrical tells the story of a song's words with the whole body and starts from our Junior classes. Contemporary joins in from Sub Intermediate (10 to 12), as technique gets stronger.
Both styles are where teenage performers really find their voice. Contemporary exams (the APDA Lucidity syllabus) are available if they want them, and our teens perform both styles in the concert and at competitions.
What they'll learn
- Floor work and release
- Expression and storytelling
- Strength and control
- Improvisation
- Optional APDA contemporary exams
