The Graham technique is an academic technique, the basic reference for most contemporary techniques. Training in this technique helps to develop self-confidence, provides strong energy and promotes self-expression.
The release technique appeared in the 1990s. It is characterized by very fluid passages on the ground and requires less technical knowledge; it is easily accessible.
The Modern fusion technique is a blend of contemporary and neo-classical ballet. A basic knowledge of classical ballet is required for this technique.
