College of Performing Arts School of Dance

1 credit 30.0 hours
300 level undergraduate course

This class develops and deepens concepts of Improvisation by continuing to delve into solo explorations and Contact Improvisation, while introducing new forms such as Authentic Movement. Students will hone their skills in the art of real time choreography as both director and performer. By studying and dancing inside of improvisational scores students will learn to create their own. Site-specific projects may be undertaken to broaden the investigative pallet. Projects in this class will emanate from the instructor or from individual or groups of students working collaboratively. Journals will be kept as an important self-reflection element of the class. Musings on structures, performances and automatic writing will be explored.
