The Contemplative Commons and Brown College at Night
Dance Composition
Explores dance making through the investigation of various tools and approaches to movement generation and composition from western choreographic practices. Students will develop their skills as dance makers through movement explorations, readings, discussions, and viewings. Students will create multiple compositional studies to hone their abilities to make dances. Feedback sessions provide opportunities for critical reflection and discussion.
Somatic Practices and Research
Investigates somatic practices and methodologies as embodied research. Through movement practice, readings, and discussions we explore multiple concepts and tools that can deepen embodied practices. This course offers an opportunity to foster awareness, expand individual movement choices, and increase clarity of expression. In so doing, we may broaden our capacity to listen, perceive, and relate to ourselves, one another, and the world around us.
