Bachelor of Arts (Hons) in Dance

Program Overview

  • Join a unique course that concentrates on building up individual dancers’ skills and understanding through small class sizes and interactive feedback on progress
  • Take part in up to three classes a day of practical sessions including techniques and creative workshops
  • Perform and tour nationally as part of our University Dance Repertoire Company D@win
  • Work with artists from internationally-recognised dance companies such as Avant Garde Dance Company, Protein Dance, ZooNation, Luke Brown Dance and Tavaziva Dance on choreographic projects
  • Build your professional portfolio through placements, performances and collaborations with groups such as Blue Apple Dance Theatre and Wessex Dance Academy

If you aim to create inspirational and innovative dance then this course is a fantastic place to start. It immerses you in a world of dance practices, artists and styles which empower you to become creative, critical and articulate within and beyond choreographic practice.

Each semester, you are able to focus on a particular way of working through single projects. Performance projects are led by established artists and offer opportunities for you to work in a variety of professional settings including theatre and dance venues, festivals, and education and health contexts. Contextual work on each project supports you in building knowledge and understanding. All theory is delivered in conjunction with the practical work you are doing in the studio.

In Year 2 you will work on a reflective blog, a professional pitch, a digital artefact, a visual essay, a podcast and project documentation. Assessment continues in your final year through facilitation and research documentation, an individual professional report, debate and presentation.
