Modern-Contemporary Dance Technique 2 is an advanced-beginning level class, which will establish and build on students' foundational experience with modern dance technique. By practicing in-class exercises and phrase-studies, students will refine bodily awareness and articulation, hone spatial and rhythmic clarity, develop facility in perceiving and interpreting movement, and practice moving with our dance musicians' scores. The hope is that this consistent engagement in movement practice over the course of the semester will form the basis of a sustainable and deeply engaged movement practice-one that may inform a lifetime of embodied creative process. This is a half course. See additional information.
Independent Work Two dance half courses may be used to satisfy a Division I elective. Field trip fees: $30-$50 for concert tickets. In this course, students are expected to spend an additional 2-4 hours weekly on work and preparation outside of class time.
