Answer 2

Dance Studio

Answer 3

If you go into a dance school and ask them for a "contemporary" class, they most likely won't have it. You probably want a modern or lyrical class. As for making a "lifetime career" as a contemporary dancer, I wouldn't get your hopes up. Even the top dancers in the world have trouble making a career out of dancing. So, don't quit your day job!

Answer 4

well, if you have never done contemporary before, i wouldn't suggest doing it for an assignment. but that's just my opinion...

Answer 5

the best place to dance is front of the mirror haha!!
