This class is an introduction to the core technique and philosophy of butoh and an exploration of how this form can be practiced in dialogue with contemporary dance. By practicing these techniques together, students develop a deeper perception of their impulse to move, sharpen their kinesthetic control and refine their performance presence. These skills can translate to a number of different dance and theater genres. Enrollment limited to 30. (E)
