Dance

Moving with the world

WWU Dance students are immersed in physical practice and artistic process of technique, choreography and performance.

Our study highlights contemporary dance, ballet technique, anatomy and kinesiology, partnering, dance for the camera, dance history, and in-depth study of choreography and creative process.

Throughout the year, faculty and students develop relationships with internationally known guest artists.

Your gift expands opportunities for our dancers to meet and work with some of the most diverse and celebrated movement artists today.

Trisha Brown
Anya Cloud
Liz Gerring
Donald Byrd and Spectrum Dance
Alan Good
Martha Graham
Mark Haim
Hannah Kahn
Cyrus Khambatta
Lar Lubovitch
Wade Madsen
Susan Marshall
Mark Morris
Kraig Patterson

Give today to create more opportunities for our students to learn from these amazing artists.
