    It would appear that Modern and Contemporary Dance are not the same thing. From the following site: Contemporary dance - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

    Contemporary dance is the name given to a group of 20th century concert dance forms. It is a collection of systems and methods developed from Modern and Postmodern dance. Thus contemporary dance is not a specific dance technique.
