DANC 520 Contemporary Body Practices
This core course combines somatic theory with practical application to dance choreography and training. In this applied (studio) course, candidates will attend seminars during the Summer Intensive for discussion and experiential work in somatic practices. Students will focus on ways somatic practices can influence movement aesthetics and develop a heighten sense of proprioception. Simultaneously, it is a movement education and re-education; thus allowing the candidate to fully realize the phenomenal and performative approach to movement.
