Dance at Stockton
The dance major at Stockton University provides an individualized experience that develops highly trained, creatively active, and professionally-oriented dancers; dance students engage with faculty and guests who are all working artists.
Stockton Dance students choose from four major concentrations (Performance, Studio Operations, Pre-Physical Therapy, Pre-Movement Science), and can also elect to minor in dance while pursuing a different major. Three dance performances each year allow students to perform faculty and guest artist works as well as their own choreography.
The dance program offers versatile classes, guest instructors, and performance opportunities that expanded my knowledge of the many career opportunities I could pursue in the future. It showed me that there is never one set path for a dancer, and the options are endless when you are ready to take that next step!

I will be eternally grateful to the Stockton dance program for molding me into the dance educator I am today. I took this course called Dance Pedagogy and Wellness that changed my perspective of being in the dance studio and expanding my mind to the endless possibilities and fun that can be had while teaching.

The program provided me with the information and encouragement that I needed to grow as a dancer and overcome my fear of performing professionally. I know that the world of performing can be daunting, but I am confident that I will be successful because of my foundation from the Stockton University Dance Program.
