Department Objectives
The Contemporary Dance Department offers comprehensive training which combines formal dance training with extensive studies in choreography. Encouraging students to discover and develop their individual creative capacities as both dancers and choreographers is the mission of the Dance program.
Performance is a crucial element in this development, and students at Concordia gain valuable experience performing or staging their own choreographies.
