SAMAHANG MODERN

Picture
Samahang Modern is UCLA’s Pilipinx-initiated competitive dance team. Founded in 1986 as the Jazz portion of Samahang Pilipino Cultural Night (SPCN), it was the first suite to feature modern dances, and later had an emphasis on hip hop when it started to become a prevalent scene in 1998. In 2002, Samahang Modern split off from SPCN and became an independent competitive dance team while still participating as a modern component in SPCN.

Get to Know Samahang Modern

It is the goal of UCLA’s Samahang Modern to challenge individuals physically and mentally by balancing their roles as students with dance, professionalism, family, and cultural roots.  Accomplishing their goals not only lies with the end of a performance but most especially within the progression of the team’s development.  Samahang Modern was built on the foundation of four pillars:

DANCE
  • To execute routines with style, accuracy, and confidence; to go full out
  • To dance to relay their passion to the audience
PROFESSIONALISM
  • To dance as a team
  • To be ambassadors of UCLA and Samahang
FAMILY
  • To demonstrate the importance of bonding to the outside community
  • To become role models to the youth and their peers
CULTURAL ROOTS
  • To represent the contemporary culture of Pilipino/Pilipina youth​​​
