Elements of Dance | KQED Arts

How fluent are you in the language of dance? Follow along with us as we detail the five elements that all forms of dance and creative movement have in common. Being able to identify and understand these core characteristics can help you when talking about a dance performance or can help you get your own messages across through movement.
