33-1381 Dancemaking I

Course introduces students to dance performance and composition through improvisation. Working alone, in duets, or small groups, students will experience warming up, guided dancing, and working within improvisational scores, all towards creating improvised compositions. Students will also set short studies in repeatable form in order to build skills in generating materials for choreography out of improvisational practices. Discussion and writing about improvisational experience and processes will supplement direct physical work.
