The JMU dance minor allows students to explore and develop their skills and knowledge in the field of dance while pursuing a major in another subject. The minor combines theoretical coursework along with practical dance training to enable students to begin a journey toward becoming well-rounded artists. Dance minors can select from a diverse menu of options, including ballet, modern, jazz, tap, dance technology, and somatic studies, complemented by required courses in dance history and improvisation.
No audition or portfolio review is required for the dance minor.
