Dance Performance

What are lessons like in this subject?

Students study a range of dance genres and critically appreciate and analyse a range of professional works which supports their development and understanding. Alongside this students enhance their dance technique and choreography skills which are assessed in a performance environment. Lessons are engaging and dynamic allowing students to explore their own creative vision. During the course students have the opportunity to work with professional artists through workshops, see a range of live performances and also have the opportunity to gain an insight to the professional dance world through the annual trip to Move it.

What our
students

say

BTEC Dance is amazing for anyone wanting to explore dance beyond a hobby, giving you opportunities to develop as both a performer and choreographer in a supportive environment. Personally, studying BTEC Dance alongside two science A-levels has given me a creative outlet and helped me grow in confidence. It has been my favourite course at New College Bradford and I would highly recommend.
