In dance, floorwork refers to movements performed on the floor. Floorwork is used extensively in modern dance, particularly Graham technique and Hawkins technique, as well as in vernacular breakdancing.[1] Some dance training practices, notably Floor-Barre, consist entirely of floorwork.

The central artistic aspects of floorwork are interaction with gravity and navigation between higher and lower levels ("going in and out of the floor"). Doris Humphrey has been credited with introducing floorwork into concert dance.[2]
