Dancing the Dance 1 (DNCE10027)

Dancing the Dance 1 offers students with little or no background in dance an introduction to fundamental dance techniques and their use in the creation of choreography.

Each weekly workshop will start with a warm up in a particular technique (such as contemporary, street or commercial dance styles) and progress to problem-solving and choreographic tools to explore ways of making dances.

The subject develops an insight into the roles of dancer and choreographer and the use of physical language as a means of expression through the exploration of dance techniques, approaches to dance-making, choreographic tools, rehearsal techniques, and dance performance.
