Description:

This introductory course is structured to free expression, investigate form and heighten concentration. Structured dance improvisational problems are given to lead the student to simultaneously invent and perform movement without pre-planning. Each class includes a brief warm-up followed by many different and changing forms-group movement, solos, trios and contact improvisation which begins with duets. Emphasis is placed on the development in each student of a heightened sensitivity and a conscientiousness about the creative impulse. Personal movement style and habits and the role of improvisation in both performance and the creative process are thoroughly explored. 1.000 Credit Hours 0.000 Lecture hours 0.000 Lab hours 0.000 Other hours Levels: Undergraduate, Post Baccalaureate Schedule Types: Lecture Undergraduate Colleges College Dance Department
