Movement Practice: Intermediate-Advanced Dance Technique
DAN4344.01) (cancelled
Course Description
Summary
This intermediate-advanced level movement practice is designed for students with prior dance experience. In this class, we will hone in on the importance of balancing controlled and spontaneous action as well as internal and external movement. We will be learning longer and more complex movement phrases that are structured with principles from Water Body Movement (“Body is a container filled with water. Movements are a flow of the water.”) and Release Technique. Bringing conscious thought and heightened awareness to both interior and exterior spaces, we deepen our understanding about the unity of our body/mind and how it functions as a whole. We aim to maximize each student’s performance, physical and technical skills and cultivate personal ways to understand how to use one’s own body. cancelled as of 1/24/2022Corequisites
