Additionally, students will have the chance to investigate and appreciate the connections between dance and other disciplines, as they critically analyse and respond to their own, their peers', and professional dance works. Performance elements will be explored further with ensemble skills, audience projection and contrasting styles learnt to understand dance genres worldwide.
