Contemporary at DanceAcademy

Contemporary here is grounded in release technique and floorwork, with regular guest artists from the Onassis Stegi network. We welcome dancers crossing over from ballet, gymnasts retraining, and absolute beginners.

What we teach

Open Contemporary

Beginner and intermediate streams, twice a week, focused on weight, breath, and travelling phrases.

Release Technique

Thursday evenings with Andreas Markou — efficiency over effort, and how to fall without bracing.

Floorwork Lab

Saturday middays with Lila Doukissa. Bring knee pads and a change of shirt.

Choreographic Studio

By audition. Six dancers per cycle, ending in a showing at the Spring Showcase.
