The Dance Program at Coolidge High School aims to provide dance students with the skills and techniques needed to perform, create and respond to choreography. Safety factors related to dance movement are stressed as students acquire and demonstrate an understanding of correct body alignment, anatomy, and warm-ups for the prevention of injuries. Students will perform a variety of Modern, Jazz, Hip Hop, and Ballet dances as they learn the technical aspects of dance production. Dance terminology, history, choreography, and improvisational techniques are introduced as well.
