Contemporary
Contemporary is a more abstract form of modern dance and is also influenced by both Classical Ballet and Jazz. Contemporary dance principles include exploring shapes and centering, breath, contraction and release, fall and recovery, balance and off-balance.
Many of its concepts come from the ideas and innovations of 20th century modern dance, including floor-work and turn-in of the legs.
