Dance, Associate in Arts Degree
The Dance Program offers practical courses in Ballet, Modern, Jazz/Hip-Hop, Tap, Strength and Stretch / Pilates and Barre, and Choreography/Performance Production. Most courses involve performances at the end of the semester, which serve as the final exam. Dance students who choose to be more involved have additional opportunites to choreograph, perform, and attend conferences such as the annual American College Dance Association conference and other outreach projects on campus and in the community. Through the dance program, students learn skills in dance, fitness, general wellness, collaboration, critical thinking, and creative composition.
