Contemporary

The Horton Technique is a technique that emphasizes a whole body, anatomical approach to dance that includes flexibility, strength, coordination of the body and spatial awareness to enable unrestricted, dramatic freedom of expression. The technique includes 17 fortification studies that focuses on strengthening, fortifying, and stretching through a series of movements that attend to different parts of the body. Horton uses flat backs and lateral stretches, tilt lines and lunges, all movements. Horton technique also incorporates lyrical, circular movements focusing on stretching in opposite directions.
As this technique is ballet based, students must also be enrolled in ballet classes.
