It’s an integral part of your art. You’ve been developing it in yourself for years. Throughout your dance education, it has been demanded of you.
We think it’s only fair you should demand it right back.
At Goucher College, flexibility isn’t just an integral part of dance as an art form – it’s an integral part of the entire dance program. Whatever your involvement in dance – as a major, minor, or part-time enthusiast – you can choreograph your own steps toward the dance education you want, mixing and matching classes to get you where you want to go.
Add to that abundant opportunities to perform and choreograph – plus an academic richness and depth that you can only get at a liberal arts institution – and you begin to understand why Goucher’s dance program is among the best offered by liberal arts colleges in the nation. But don’t take it from us. Take it from our students. If the variety of experiences they have at Goucher isn’t enough of a testament to the flexibility and opportunity you will find here, they’ll be happy to tell you themselves.
To become a true artist, you have to be flexible physically and mentally. You have to learn to think and dream and imagine without boundaries. More than anything else, that’s what a Goucher education prepares you to do.
