I.S.T.D. Modern Theatre
Modern Theatre dance is a rhythmic dance style which originated in America before travelling to the rest of the world. It is often seen on the stages of musical productions and is known for its theatrical qualities. The style uses travelling steps, high kicks, leaps, and turns which all need strength and flexibility. This is a highly energetic dance style.
Children can start from 5 years following an I.S.T.D. syllabus from Primary to Vocational levels. Free music is also used in class which may include pop, lyrical and musical theatre.
