Dance - Carleton College

Dance from Carleton College is a Campus Bachelor Dance degree that prepares you for a Art and Design career. Overview Dance activities at Carleton are designed to give students of all levels opportunities for active participation in three basic areas: technique, choreography and analysis, and performance. The broadest goal of these offerings is to increase understanding of the art of dance as a contribution to a liberal arts education. Among more specific goals are the development of a trained, articulate body, increased choreographic skill and more finely-honed performance. Study & Performance Advanced students may apply to the Department of Theater and Dance for a special major in Dance . Acceptance to the program is based on personal interviews with faculty, auditions to establish class level and the submission of a short essay and a detailed schedule of required courses obtained from the department. Note that the major requires one term's participation in an approved, off-campus conservatory program. Classes in Modern Dance Technique and Ballet are offered on at least two levels during all terms. Other technique classes offered yearly are jazz, moving anatomy and contact improvisation. All courses may be taken any number of terms at the appropriate level. View more details on Carleton College . Ask your questions and apply online for this program or find other related Dance courses.
