Dance Minor

In this minor, you’ll engage with dance on multiple levels—creative, intellectual, and physical. 

Guided by our outstanding faculty, you’ll receive conservatory-caliber training in a small class setting. As a Dance Minor, you’ll gain a broad understanding of the historical, theoretical, and cultural roots of dance, while also learning and performing a variety of styles and choreography, from Ballroom to Traditional West African to Hip Hop. In addition, you’ll have the opportunity to attend shows throughout the Bay Area and work with a diverse range of guest artists. 

Our students grow tremendously in their critical thinking, writing, and verbal communication skills, all valuable skills for any future career. Some of our graduates head for careers in dance, theatre, and the arts. Many continue onto graduate studies. Others put their critical and creative skills to work outside of the arts, in education, health care, and beyond.

Myriad possibilities await you, and we are here to prepare you for them!
