    Technical skills are honed in this advanced professional-level course sequence. Breathing, a gathering and releasing of tension, is heightened, increasing versatility in the work. Phrases of movement are emphasized throughout the floorwork. More complicated, longer combinations in the center build control and balance while working on and off center. Leg extensions are higher and the full integration of the legs, arms and head with the torso as the center and the catalyst of all movement is achieved. The body now moves as a whole, not as individual parts. There is no longer a separation of the floor, standing and traveling work, but all are combined in lengthy combinations as an expressive, dramatic and technically advanced vocabulary. Performance skills are coached, particularly the dramatic expression of the individual. 2.000 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

    The Senior Project in Performance offers invaluable practical experience for students as performers, speaker/lecturers and, in some cases, choreographers. The first term is spent working with renowned artists-in-residence from the professional dance field. They represent a range of aesthetics from masters like Alvin Ailey, Jose Limon, or Paul Taylor to emerging artists like Ronald K. Brown, Lila York and Donald Byrd. These workshops can offer supplementary technique training (Limon) or creative work (Creach and Koester) that complement the rehearsal of dance repertory. Under the guidance and supervision of The Ailey School faculty, students perform at locations in the metropolitan area during the winter. In the spring, the project culminates with intensive rehearsals and coaching that prepare the students to be showcased in their BFA spring Concert in a New York City theater. 3.000 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
