Overview

Studying Dance is a challenging and rewarding experience. It offers the opportunity to extend and develop your dance technique and choreographic skills, whilst studying and engaging in analysis, critical theory and new technology.

Student view

Studying at Chichester has given me the greater confidence to pursue a career in dance. After completing my BA here and with the support of the teaching staff it was an easy transition to do the MA. I have also thoroughly enjoyed the social events that the student union have put on. Thomas Pickard, Dance

Choreography is the central focus of study here at Chichester; developing the creative, imaginative and interpersonal skills that will help you to realise your dance potential. Body in Performance (Dance Technique) represents a quarter of the programme for single honours and major students and provides daily technical practice. There is a wealth of specialist tutors whose backgrounds range from highly respected performance companies to practitioners in New Media, Dance Movement Therapy and Dance Journalism.
