FACULTY
The Laredo School of Contemporary Dance offers training by instructors with extensive professional experience. Our instructors encourage all dancers to broaden their artistic horizons and realize their creative potential.
LSCD has an ample studio space equipped with Marley dance flooring. All teaching methods are geared towards injury-free training, and our instructors use an injury-free approach considering that all dancers are not built alike. Students are taught not only how to perform movement but also the reason why movements have certain forms. All this is done with the goal of molding smart dancers with great body awareness. Dancers learn to DANCE SMARTER, NOT HARDER.
