Floor work refers to a dance technique or a series of movements in which dancers move their bodies on the floor, using it as a prop or a partner.

Floor work is a common element in contemporary and modern dance styles, but it is also utilized in other dance forms for expressive and artistic purposes.

Shifting Roots is the synthesis of the principles of the José Limón Technique and the movement qualities and characteristics developing from those concepts. After many years of evolution, Shifting Roots has grown into a self-sustaining movement language that continues to carry the DNA of the José Limón philosophy. Gravity, fall, recovery, and suspension of movement are inherent, yet hand and arm gestures distinguish it from the Limón technique. These hand and arm gestures create infinite reactions from the body structure as it moves through space.

The Gaga movement method, was created by Ohad Naharin, a former Martha Graham dancer, is an innovative approach to dance.
