Spotlight on Moving, Thinking, Meaning: Investigating Mind and Body in Dance and Movement Theatre<\/strong><\/h2>\n

What’s this class about?<\/strong><\/h2>\n

One of the major challenges for the performing artist, no matter what style of dance, mime or theater, is actually \u2018being in the moment\u2019 when performing. How do we avoid getting ahead of ourselves, acting only from memory, being overly self-conscious or self-critical when we\u2019re moving or acting onstage? As well, why do viewers so often feel obliged to analyze or \u2018get\u2019 what is happening onstage? These issues are of fundamental importance no matter what type of dance or movement we\u2019re interested in.<\/p>\n

This will be a research workshop that examines three basic issues for dancers and all those interested in\u00a0movement\u00a0for the stage: how to bring mind and body together in the moment of performance, how movement creates meaning, and how often-unconscious preconceptions about dance influence how we see and make\u00a0performance.<\/p>\n

What are the times and dates?<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Half Block: January 8-18, with class from 9am-noon.<\/p>\n

What kinds of skills will I learn?<\/strong><\/h3>\n

You’ll learn how to become comfortable and engaged in the present while performing and how to avoid self-criticism.<\/p>\n
