Dance as a Central Activation of Possibility<\/em>
\n<\/b><\/p>\n

A+B level, C level<\/strong><\/b><\/p>\n

We will work on developing an agile relationship between the head, shoulders, arms and legs; considering ballet as art, as a system, and as \u201cchangeable architecture\u201d. Attention is given to interior mechanics driven by counterpoint. Throughout the class, attentiveness to the musicality of the form gives insight into the various understandings of tempi and interacting rhythms.<\/p>\n

This ballet workshop is proposed as a collaborative setting where new information and knowledge about the moving body, in relationship to form and history, happen in the moment. The professional level workshop will also include learning set material, and the further exploration of improvisation techniques, systems, and trace forms.<\/p>\n
