Graham technique is a modern dance movement style and pedagogy created by American dancer and choreographer Martha Graham (1894–1991). Graham technique has been called the "cornerstone" of American modern dance, and has been taught worldwide. It is widely regarded as the first codified modern dance technique, and strongly influenced the later techniques of Merce Cunningham, Lester Horton, and Paul Taylor. The phrase "Graham technique" was registered as a trademark before Graham's death, and was the subject of a trademark dispute in the early 2000s.

- Pull, pull on the contraction. Do not cave in. And the contraction is not a position. It is a movement into something. It is like a pebble thrown into the water, which makes rippling circles when it hits the water. The contraction moves. (en)

| - Graham technique is a modern dance movement style and pedagogy created by American dancer and choreographer Martha Graham (1894–1991). Graham technique has been called the "cornerstone" of American modern dance, and has been taught worldwide. It is widely regarded as the first codified modern dance technique, and strongly influenced the later techniques of Merce Cunningham, Lester Horton, and Paul Taylor. Graham technique is based on the opposition between contraction and release, a concept based on the breathing cycle which has become a "trademark" of modern dance forms. Its other dominant principle is the "spiraling" of the torso around the axis of the spine. Graham technique is known for its unique dramatic and expressive qualities and distinctive floorwork; dance critic Anna Kisselgoff described it as "powerful, dynamic, jagged and filled with tension". The phrase "Graham technique" was registered as a trademark before Graham's death, and was the subject of a trademark dispute in the early 2000s. (en)
- La tecnica Graham è uno stile e una pedagogia del movimento della danza moderna creati dalla ballerina e coreografa americana Martha Graham (1894-1991). La tecnica Graham è stata definita la "pietra angolare" della danza moderna americana ed è stata insegnata in tutto il mondo. È ampiamente considerata la prima tecnica di danza moderna codificata e ha fortemente influenzato le tecniche successive di Merce Cunningham, e Paul Taylor. La tecnica Graham si basa sull'opposizione tra contrazione e rilascio, un concetto basato sul ciclo del respiro che è diventato un "marchio di fabbrica" delle forme di danza moderna. Il suo altro principio dominante è la "spirale" del tronco attorno all'asse della colonna vertebrale. La tecnica Graham è nota per le sue straordinarie qualità drammatiche ed espressive e per il floorwork (lavoro a terra) distintivo; la critica della danza Anna Kisselgoff lo ha descritto come "potente, dinamico, frastagliato e pieno di tensione". L'espressione "tecnica Graham" è stata registrata come marchio prima della morte della Graham ed è stata oggetto di una controversia sui diritti d'autore all'inizio degli anni 2000. (it)
