In this course, students will learn technically demanding movement material from contemporary dance choreographers. Specifically, we will focus on duet and partnering movement material that the instructor himself participated in creating and performing. We will stitch this movement material together to create an original dance piece that will be performed in the Works in Progress dance concert towards the end of the term.

Mini Projects: Dance — DAN4030.01

Instructor: Dana Reitz
Days & Time: TU,FR 10:30am-12:20pm
Credits: 1

This is a laboratory for making a mini dance project that can be developed within the short time frame of 3 weeks, right at the start of the term. Students will be working with others in the class to make, teach, and rehearse selections of movement material, culminating in a project that may be shown in Dance Workshop. This is an opportunity for working with instincts, for finding quick solutions and perhaps creating a base for future work.
