DANC 325 - Ballet II

Institution:

Commonwealth University of Pennsylvania

Subject:

Dance

Description:

Explores ballet dance from an artistic, intellectual and physical approach. Through exposure to floor-barre, standing barre, traveling and center-based exercises, students will gain a greater sense of alignment, anatomical principles, musicality, terminology, and self-awareness. Additionally, through studying the repertoire of professional ballet companies, students will be able to recognize the elements that define classical versus contemporary ballet dance, and the importance of both to the dance landscape. *Prior exposure to ballet dance is required. Instructor approval will be given during the first week of classes to determine appropriate placement. Students may have completed DANC 115 or have previous non-Commonwealth University studio experience in ballet technique.
