There are not specifically different "kinds" of modern dance... Modern Dance developed out of many different roots but there were two main (and two secondary) forerunners that all modern dance branches from (Graham and Humphrey) Different Choreographers and Dancers take what there master taught them, change it a little for various reasons and teach it to their students, and so on. Some major "schools" of modern dance (with codified techniques) are Graham, Horton (Ailey), Limon, Duncan, Humphrey, Cunningham. So basically what kind of modern dance will depend on the teacher/choreographer, and who they were taught by and so on.

How are jazz and modern dance different?
Jazz can be any kind of upbeat series of movements. This might sound just like contemporary (modern) dancing but actually, try doing the 1970's Charleston (which is classified as jazz dance) to Like a G6! Modern dances are used with more modern songs and movements. The way modern dance is danced changes depending on the time. Does this make sense? In other words, in the 1920s the Charleston was considered a modern dance. Now that doesn't mean that doing a dance to Like a G6 wouldn't be jazz. It could be a variety of dance subjects. It really just depends on which type of dance best suits the movements and song. -Thank you!
