    Description
    Students in this class will learn intermediate level modern dance technique warm up and exercises for the further development of movement vocabulary, strength, flexibility, alignment, range of motion, and rhythmic coordination. Guided group improvisations will be used for the development of personal movement vocabulary, creative outlet, and to hone intermediate level cognitive and improvisational skills. There will be a study of modern dance as an art form, including brief discussions on history and theory. The study of dance composition theories and conceptual approaches will be discussed. Students will create solo and group work on a complex and multi-dimensional level. The student will be guided to hone in on one’s own artistic voice and to be able to articulate their reasons for creation in an intelligent, comprehensive manner. (A, CSU, UC)
