Students undertaking the study of Dance will experience, understand, value and enjoy Dance as an art form through the interrelated study of Performance, Composition and Appreciation. 

Dance Performance consists of dance technique, body skills and the application of safe dance technique to selected styles of dance. 

Dance Composition involves creating and structuring movement to express and communicate ideas and feelings through the use of choreographic devises and elements of dance (Space, Time and Dynamics). 

Dance Appreciation consists of looking at what makes dance safe and describing and analysing dance as an expression of ideas within a social, historical and cultural context.
