The Art of the Dancer: Nurturing Creative Physicality Explore new methods for rehearsing contemporary choreography that forgoes the usual system of corrections, notes and coaching. Spend six hours of studio time daily. Mornings focus on physical practice through a demanding and exhilarating contemporary dance class, using principles of the Graham, Limon and Cunningham techniques, as well as the influence of neuro-muscular educator Irene Dowd. Afternoons are dedicated to creative practice, and participants have three to six minutes of solo choreography to explore rehearsal techniques. Participants will engage in journal writing to record daily projects, capture images and observations, and to reflect on possibilities, insights and quandaries. Begin each day with sitting (meditation) and pranayama (breath work), and end with asana practice (poses) led by Vijnana yoga teacher, Sylvain Brochu. August 27 - September 1, 2010 |
