Dear Melissa,

Technical dance achievements vary according to the specific type or style of contemporary dance you aim for.

Some common skills searched by contemporary dancers are:

-Dynamism

-Spontaneous and creative improvisation

-Physical force and suppleness

-Smooth relationship with the floor or during the changing of levels

-Versatile expressivity

-Acrobatic skills (high jumps, turnings, balances and so forth)

Though, as I have explained in some of the pages at our website, each contemporary dance project has its own demands. It might seem a bit complex, be that's the way it is...

I believe you might clear up your doubt by reading our main page about contemporary dance techniques. Here's the link to it:

And to understand even better, read our pages about contemporary dance and modern dance history:

Modern Dance History

If, after all that reading, you still have doubts, just write back through this same thread. I'll be glad to continue helping you out.

Warm regards,

Maria
