Hi!
This time I will write a little bit about a
style of dance that I like the most and feel the most comfortable with. Style
which I enjoy the most is contemporary dance . It developed in the middle of XX
century and ever since has grown and become more and more popular. Over time it
turns out to be one of the domination performance genres for professional
dancers all over the world, especially it gains ground n the U.S.and Europe.
Originally contemporary derived from classical, modern and jazz styles but nowadays
it combines and get inspiration from many dance styles.
As this is at some point mix of many other
genres, contemporary dance incorporates such points as controlled legwork of ballet, stress on the torso
from modern dances; it also employs contact-release technique, much
floor work, very characteristic fall and recovery, and improvisation.
Below you can watch some great choreography and example of unrepeatable contemporary dance:)
Enjoy!
