Autumn 2026
About Contemporary Intermediate with Ellie Peacock
Autumn Term classes start on Monday 14 September and run until Monday 7 December 2026 (excluding Monday 26 October due to half term).
Find energy, vibrance and joy in dance.
In this class you will master a range of contemporary dance techniques – from Cunningham technique, to release and floorwork. Moving from back and legwork into more complex phrases, traveling exercises and jumps, you will be encouraged to find enjoyment in the space you’re in. As the classes progress you will build confidence, perfect for any contemporary dancers with three or more years’ experience, looking to refine or explore new techniques with others.
This class will be accompanied by live music by Oliver Davies.
Please note, this is the class that is regularly taught by Megan Griffiths. She will be covered by Ellie Peacock for the Autumn Term.
