    MODERN DANCE
     is a broad genre of western concert or theatrical dance, primarily
    arising out of Germany and the United States in the late 19th and early
    20th centuries.
     It has been said the modern dance is contradictory reaction of classic
    dances particularly, the Ballet. The dance is allows the performers and
    choreographers to make their own agreement of dance language.
    HISTORY OF MODERN
    DANCE
    The History of modern dance can be divided into three periods. The first
    period began at the turn of the century, around 1900; the second phase
    emerged during the interwar period, around 1930. And the third took root
    after World War II, around 1945. Historical social changes influenced each
    evolution of modern dance.

    CHARACTERISTIC OF
    CONTEPORARY DANCE
    1. GRAHAM - This was named after Martha Graham. This style basically
    focuses on the use of contraction, release, recovery, and fall. Graham is
    distinguished by floor work and the use of pelvic and abdominal
    contractions. The style is much grounded and the technique is visibly
    contrary to the slender and graceful, airborne ideals of ballet.

    2. LIMON - This was named after ose Limon. It involves exploring the use of
    energy in relation to gravity and working with weight in terms of rebound,
    fall, suspension and recovery. Limon technique uses the feeling of "heavy
    energy" and weight in the body, and movement is initiated using breath to
    lift, and swings through the body to create and halt movement and thus it
    feels very nice to perform.
    3. RELEASE - Placing emphasis on minimizing tension in the search for fluidity and
    clarity and the efficient use of breath and energy. In Release technique just as it
    sounds, we release through the
    muscles and joints to create ease of movement, releasing the breath to support
    the release of the body. A dance style as well as a great relaxation technique.

    4. IMPROVISTION - It mainly focuses on the relationship between movements and


    performance and on the investigation of movements. Development of individual
    movement material is made possible through a vareity of creative explorations.

    5. CONTACT IMPROVISITION - Contact improvisation describes a duet dance form


    characterized by fluid movement, weight exchange, and touch. Partners improvise
    the dance using the natural movement of the body.
    MODERN CONTEMPORARY
    DANCE
     Contemporary dance is a style of expressive dance that
    combines elements of several dance genres including
    modern, jazz, lyrical and classical ballet.
     Contemporary dancers strive to connect the mind and the
    body through fluid dance movements. The term
    "contemporary" is somewhat misleading: it describes a
    genre that developed during the mid-2oth century and is still
    very popular today.
    OVERVIEW OF CONTEMPORARY
    DANCE
    Contemporary dance stresses versatility and improvisation, unlike the strict, structured nature of ballet.

    Contemporary dancers focus on floorwork, using gravity to pull them down to the floor. This dance genre is often
    done in bare feet. Contemporary dance can be performed to many different styles of music.

    Pioneers of contemporary dance include Isadora Duncan, Martha Graham, and Merce Cunningham, because
    they broke the rules of the strict forms of ballet. These dancer/choreographers all believed that dancers should
    have freedom of movement, allowing their bodies to freely express their innermost feelings. It's important to
    note, however, that while Graham moved into what is now known as modern dance, and Duncan's style was
    uniquely her own, Cunningham is often spoken of as the father of contemporary dance.

    HISTORIC ROOTS OF
    CONTEMPORARY DANCE
    Modern and contemporary dance have many elements in common; they are, in a way, branches stemming
    from the same roots. During the 19th century, theatrical dance performances were synonymous with
    ballet.

    Ballet is a formal technique that developed from court dance during the Italian Renaissance and became
    popular as a result of the support of Catherine de' Medici.

    Around the end of the 19th century, several dancers began to break the ballet mold. Some of these
    individuals included Francois Delsarte, Loie Fuller, and Isadora Duncan, all of whom developed unique
    styles of movement based on theories of their own.

    All focused less on formal techniques, and more on emotional and physical expression.

    8. Highland Dancing

    Highland dance was developed in the Gaelic Highlands of Scotland and should not be confused with Scottish
    Country Dancing. Highland dancing requires a lot of stamina, as well as arm and leg strength. Many people may
    compare Scottish highland dance to Irish dance but, Irish dance Is progressive and Highland dancing is traditional.
    Ballet shoes may be worn on vounger dancers, however the traditional Gillies are often requested. The eyelets found
    on Highland shoes are flat with metal rings.

    with country-western music and dance. Line dancing is a solo dance that

    is danced in a straignt ine. a circle or in a tollow the leader pattern. rootear is decided ov the dancer and is if often
