Bachelor of Arts in Dance Join our world-renowned dance department with its international and diverse faculty. Our outstanding BA Dance fosters academic and artistic excellence, creativity and innovation, and is taught by artists and researchers who are leading specialists in their fields. This degree offers an innovative and broad curriculum and provides an excellent grounding for your career in dance and the arts. You will engage in a comprehensive study of dance, integrating theory with dance practice. As one of the largest dance departments in the world, we provide a breadth of curricular expertise that is virtually unparalleled and responsive to the needs of each individual student. We offer daily technique classes with live accompaniment from professional musicians in contemporary core styles such as Cunningham, Graham, Limón, release and contact improvisation. Exploring familiar and unfamiliar dance forms, from ballet to capoeira to hip hop, you’ll be encouraged to reflect on dance in novel ways and develop your analytic skills – for instance, by considering how dance both shapes and is shaped by society, or how choreographers respond to a multicultural and globalised environment. We have exciting partnerships with a host of choreographers, dance artists and companies. Our students have worked with renowned figures such as Akram Khan, Gaby Agiss, Igor and Moreno, and Rosemary Lee. You will also study performance and choreography, dance politics and history, and learn about areas such as theatre lighting, stage design and management, and screen dance, to enhance your production and project management abilities, alongside your dance practice. During this three-year degree, you will follow your own interests, gaining a strong understanding and knowledge of dance in both theory and practice. You will discover many different ways to experience dance, not only in performing, but also a variety of other roles, including educator, artist, community dancer, policymaker, curator and screendance maker. - see more at: https://www.roehampton.ac.uk/undergraduate-courses/dance/
