London Contemporary Dance School places a strong emphasis on creating a community of learning and on learner-centered teaching, particularly in seminars and personal tutorials based on your ideas, interests, skills and artistic practice.

Screendance has wealth of history in the UK and, as a London Contemporary Dance School student, you will be part of the creative powerhouse for dance development, The Place.
