An
Associate in Arts degree in Dance from Skyline College provides students with
the foundation and skills needed to enter the dance profession or transfer to a
dance program at a four-year university. Students improve their level of physical
dance technique, performance and expression. Dance majors participate in dance
performances every semester which include opportunities for students to
choreograph and perform their work. Coursework includes practice and history in
multiple dance styles, including ballet, contemporary modern, jazz, hip hop and
musical theater. Develop a
more authentic and individualized interpretation of a given dance form through
a demonstration of appropriate levels of technique that incorporate cultural
elements* of this dance form (*e.g., costume, history, vocabulary, rhythm and
music). Create and develop unique
movement sequences, and collaboratively organize that material into a dance
production. Critically evaluate and
objectively discuss dance as a performance art.
Career Path
Studying
dance prepares students to pursue a variety of careers in the arts and
education, including dance instruction, critical work, choreography, and
professional dance and performance. Individuals educated in dance can work in
schools, theaters, recreation centers, fitness centers, dance and movie studios
and more.
