ABOUT THE DISCIPLINE
What is Contemporary Kids?
Contemporary Kids is a dance program oriented toward childhood that introduces boys and girls to a freer, more sensitive, and creative movement language.
Through age-appropriate dynamics, the class works on coordination, body listening, movement, spatial awareness, musicality, and expression.
It’s not about rigid technique or reproducing closed forms, but about supporting the development of the body and imagination through a practice where moving also means exploring, feeling, and communicating.
IN MOTION
A practice to grow in sensitivity and expression
It is a class where the body learns, but also listens, imagines, and finds its own ways to express itself.

METHODOLOGY
What a contemporary class is like
Explore, feel, and move with close guidance
Contemporary Kids classes are built on a clear structure that remains open to exploration. Each session suggests body dynamics, imagery, music, and short sequences so that children can discover new ways to move.
Learning happens through experience: observing, trying, imagining, repeating, and sharing. Technique is introduced in an adapted way, ensuring each student can gain confidence without losing curiosity, playfulness, or enjoyment.
01
Listening
We start by connecting with the body, the group, and the energy of the class.
02
Exploration
They try out supports, levels, directions, and different movement qualities.
03
Imagination
They work from images, stories, and prompts that awaken their creative world.
04
Sequence
They integrate what they’ve learned into short movement phrases to build memory and confidence.
