In this video you can watch a full Contemporary Technique class at London Contemporary Dance School with teacher Kate Price. Dance alongside our first year students by learning this contemporary Cunningham based technique. Accompanied by Matteo Ricordo.
The majority of students at London Contemporary Dance School study a three year undergraduate programme leading to a BA (Hons) in Contemporary Dance. The programme is highly intensive, with studio-based work at its centre, enhanced by a range of contextual studies that directly relate to the experience of performing, making, researching and understanding dance. The programme offers the flexibility to specialise in performance or choreography, or to develop expertise in both fields. Students learn a broad base of skills, supported by a range of movement practices and have valuable performance and creative opportunities throughout the programme. As they complete their degree and begin to explore their next steps in dance, students are supported as they graduate into professional employment, independent practice or postgraduate study.

Amazing video! Thank you for posting the entire class. Videos like this are an amazing resource for young students looking to expand their dance knowledge or to practice at home on days when they don’t have class.
Thank you Nataliya that was our intention! We now have a learning resource playlist that you can check out here: ruclips.net/p/PL6Uiuyw6SX8oiwfr_U1Q7JJ5v51ey7Mfd
I love school, I studied here, the best for contemporary in the UK in my opinion. They used to have their own Dance company with excellent productions, some of the best dancers in the World at that time.
Thank you for your comment!
Would love some more Cunningham tech classes, they're so informative. Your latest class videos are release based
these are incredible dancers and have a stunning take on the movements
Thank you Aidan, we agree!
Nice warm up stretch very different but integral and bendy. I love dance and all it’s about.
So do we!
GOD BLESS HIS CHOSEN PEOPLE WITH STRONG BONES , HEALTHY BODY , SOUL , SPIRIT
Heartache - I miss daily classes. Avoid my mistake, dancers: don't get old!
You're never too old to dance! :)
Old!? I hadn't taken classes in decades, but I just took some online "Returning Dancer" classes.
I was terrible, couldn't find my center, my 2x2 meter space was too small and my desk has more flexibility. But I had a blast just moving nonlinearly again. Plus since it was online nobody could really see my mistakes. 8D
Good class! The quick leaps at the end were fun, seeing them cross the floor in 3 directions had a good flow. It was kind of mesmerizing and would have made a good basis for a dance.
Thank you so much!
I love the class but the drums are giving me a headache half an hour in, i can imagine if your right by them it could get old quickly
you're
@@katherinemarsh7429 you're such a smart and deep human being
Charlotte Munday this is a staple of Modern dance classes to help them learn keeping time and phrasing. I was accompanist at CalArts. I also used marimba, piano and voice. Music and dance have gone hand and hand for eons.
But to us as contemporary dancers, we love percussion and dance to it very often. Especially if you are in classical training 🙂
@@katherinemarsh7429 hhhhhhhhhaa
I love this. I love the drums. A class I would enjoy taking for sure!
Thank you Jim!
All time favorite dance and lots of goosebumps
Thank you Sue!
Love those drums!
How courageous are dancers to go to perfection !
it's not so much about courage, cause most people start dancing at at early age where such thoughts are no normal for a child. the fun of dancing at that age transforms into routine as the years pass by, so it becomes normal to aim for perfection. if you look at it with an adults mind it is daunting
@@soothingmeditationsmusic well no offence but that dance was really basic and more aimed at children which I thought was weird don’t you think it looked like they were capable of something more complicated ?
@@tiahnnayasmine670 we were not talking at all about the exercises these students were doing. the conversation was about courage..
An absolute joy - despite getting old Rob P. :)
So glad you enjoyed it!
Beautiful !!!
Thank you!
i just love to see these classes.
Thank you! We're glad you're enjoying it!
Its The Place to be , when in London ! Love it !! ❤❤
Thank you! :)
I very much appreciate this video, and the art form! It is truly amazing how disciplined and dedicated dancers must be to execute, and perfect their craft. I have one question: in this video, are the dancers training in Cunningham Technique? Thank you!
Hi there! This is a contemporary class with Cunningham influences. Thank you for your comment! :)
Love it !!
😍
Thank you!!
Fantastic.i love it.
Glad you like it! Thanks! :)
Yes - we do need Zimbabweans to go to Ethiopia, follow ED and Chiwenga where ever they go and make noise. I hear Chiwenga is in SA, people need to go to the hospital where he is and make noise there. He should go home and get his treatment in Parirenyatwa.
Ouh... looks like advanced class. I wouldn't be able to keep up all this time. How many times did they do this routine? Is there sth like "You have to be THIS flexible"?
1:05:35 That small jump, is that an 'assemble' ?
No, not really as it lands in one foot with the other in parallell coud de pied while an assamblé would land in both feet:) Maybe kind of like a modern version of a temps levé? Don't think it has a name in modern but correct me if I'm wrong
Definitely not an assemblé. I would say a contemporary balloné...
@@alexandraf.6549 Yessss, balloné was the term I was looking for! Thanks xx
i guess that's emboite
Its definitely not an assemblé bcz assemblés are landed on both feet. You can call it a modern balloné or embêté
I studied here many many years ago , at that time the accompaniment was either congas/ bongos or piano - I find the drumming on a full kit really noisy and too ‘busy’ - it seems more like a practice session for the drummer rather than the dancer - I would not enjoy this - I love the classical Graham approach with a pianist
I used t0 dance at Urdang in the early 90s and we had a bongo player. Fantastic. How lucky we were!!
@@jamesgattuso9778 I remember the Urdang in Covent Garden ! Don’t know if it’s still there - I agree- it was simple and rhythmic - better times!
Wow .. amazing..
Pls stay connected
Thank you! Cheers!
Superb

Этому надо учиться?
Интересно, сколько занятия стоят?🙄
Can someone please tell me what genre of dance is this?
Hi Mutakber it's contemporary dance!
okay, lovely talent, but I don't like it when there are drums. I cannot focus well and it reminds me of the dark days I had at school. Secondly, it does give a different texture to the rhythm and a completely different technique. I would like to see these guys try this routine with music, with or without words
I liked the drums, but he did seem to have sped up the tempo on the combination on the first side. Although it might have been the ornamentation he put in made it seem faster, since was just watching.
What kind of dance technique is this??
Hi Papo, this is a contemporary technique class with Cunningham influences!
WHERE QATICERTIFICATE
Can I come?
Yes you can! Check out all our classes here: www.theplace.org.uk/participation
Sir mujhe bhi sikhna hai.
Mai pagal ho jaunga..
I know this is super late but could you not move the camera around 🙈
We'll definitely keep that in mind in future filming :)
@@theplace I second this. Really enjoyed the class, but very distracting camera. Just filming from the front would be much better!
Cunninghan influences
Lemon too !
@@benjaminclement8965 Lemon too!
This is a modern version of classical dance, but not better than the classics.
This is modern dance. It's born from the classics, not out to be better or worse. It's all beautiful art and craft.
It's not Ballet..It uses ballet for technigue....but comes from an inner voice of NOW...love it..xoxoxo
I like dancer class gays!!!
Ужасная музыка... под неё можно разлюбить танцевать...
Please give credit to the live musician!!!!
Hi Bradley thank you for your comment! The musician is called Matteo Ricordo and is named in the video description but we have moved his name into the first paragraph so it is more obvious!
:):)
if you're recording a class, it'd be best not turn the camera to the drummer because for beginners, it doens't help.
Hi Francisco
Thank you for your message.
This class is intended for dance students to get a sense of what it is like to study at LCDS. Here are a couple of links to some tutorial shorts that we have which are made for learning through video:
How to forward roll: ruclips.net/video/uXSfDLlHfW4/видео.html How to belly spin: ruclips.net/video/95CiYSzDbhE/видео.html
Watch this space for so phrases that you can learn at home!
역시 현대무용은 재미 없어. 영국이라서 좀 특별할지 알았더니...
영국 고인물이라서.
Well, indeed this is not contemporary as you can see it nowadays. I see many influences of modern dance. The music is Boring and very noise.
Are these guys trained to be professional dancers? None of them shaped or move like dancers. How bizzare.
Shaped? Jeez...
They are very obviously students...they are working on technique. How bizarre you think dancers must be shaped a certain way.
@@alisonl3098 Yes, these are our first year students!
Why is it so basic ? Doesn’t look that difficult just teaching the basics but they are all old
Hi Tiahnna, This is a first year class at LCDS. Students at LCDS join with different experiences of dance practices, so the LCDS faculty always ensure that they cover dance foundations so that everyone has the same knowledge, understanding and opportunities. It also helps the students to unlearn habits that may have been picked up with previous training!
Contemporary dance sucks.
well, i love it. but no one needs to like. Although cont dance can be used in many ways. But it is fine to say it sucks, as sometimes it does hahaha
Goran Kellett I love contemporary at my studio!
I've been a dancer in various forms for all my life, I've studied history of dance, so I vastly know all the forms that there are, but.. I can't digest it either :P I respect who does it, but it's not my jam.
Tho the education says that you can't state that something sucks, without argumenting.
@@Lachesi I disagree with that statement that you can't say something suck without an argument. I think you as a person if you think it suck with watching or trying it then that's good enough to say it suck, other wise your just go a have arguments all day long.
@@Lachesi you write everything correctly. Terrible hands, back does not hold well. There is no expressiveness in this dance.
