About Modern
Modern dance emerged in the early 20th century as a revolutionary art form created by visionaries who rejected the rigid codification of classical Ballet in favor of movement rooted in natural human expression, breath, emotion, and social relevance. Pioneers including Isadora Duncan, Martha Graham, Doris Humphrey, José Limón, and Lester Horton each developed distinct technical systems — Graham technique with its iconic contraction and release, Horton with its flat back and lateral movements, Limon with its breath and suspension — that permanently transformed concert dance. Modern dance embraces gravity, fall and recovery, floor work, and the full range of human emotional and physical experience. Today Modern technique forms the essential foundation of contemporary professional dance training and is studied in university conservatories and community studios worldwide. Classes develop technical facility, artistic depth, and creative voice for students from approximately age eight through adults of all levels and experience. Find Modern dance classes near you today.
