Full Description
BASIC DANCE COMPOSITION – BEGINNER for ages 16-adult
With Rebecca Alson-Milkman
Through group improvisations and assigned studies, budding dancemakers will be introduced to the building blocks of composition: movement theme and variation, varying ways to code and carve the dance space, and how to define relationships between dancers. Weekly assigned studies will get choreographers experimenting with a variety of organizing principles such as song structure, narrative, and spatial progression. Participants will learn how to give and receive supportive feedback by employing the core steps of Liz Lerman’s Critical Response Process in reflecting on each other’s studies. This class series does require some light reading as well as time outside of class making studies.
