Course Description

Teacher in Charge: Miss R. Richards.

This intensive and creative course builds on the skills learned in Level 2.

Students will develop their skills further to analyse their own learning and performance practices as well as their own and others' choreography.  This course explores knowledge and understanding of dance in Aotearoa in a written external exam.  Appropriate dance clothing is required.
