Synopsis

Designed to empower students of dance, this text seeks to inspire creative thinking, reasoning skills, and self expression. Through the use of examples and exercises based on non-studio experiences, the book aims to help students frame the art of dance within the context of life. Part I explores the way the body is used for expression and the ways the elements of dance are instinctively applied in daily life. Part II begins with an overview of dance exploration basics and then expands into a discussion of the three major elements of movement - time, space, and effort. Part III introduces the concepts of perception and body intelligence as students are encouraged to explore and develop their own creative resources. Finally, in Part IV the art of creating a dance is seen as the art of making a statement.
