Planning my Studio Shoot

I have booked the studio out and I am hoping to get some good images. I will hopefully have 2 dancers, allowing me a range of images. I can take pictures of them individually, but also doing partner work.

Looking at other artists photos, I can see that i will need a lot of light to be able to capture everything that it going on. Mainly key light, hitting the subject, but also a little bit of back light to highlight the areas around them. 
Here you can see how other artists have used lighting;



For this image below, on the left they have mainly used back light, this makes the image look very effective and gives it a silhouette effect. I also like the way it shines through her hair.
The image on the right we can actually see the lighting they have used, They have placed it above the dancers, but on a 45 degree angle towards the photographer so that the camera can also pick up the light.
