This course is a second-level intermediate modern dance technique derived in part from the principles of the American founders of modern dance. Students demonstrate two 24-48 count movement exercises of greater complexity, focusing on an increased range of motion of the limbs and rhythmic changes. Students execute two supplemental movement phrases of intricate design, incorporating the dynamic movement principles of space, time, and energy. Students attend a live modern dance performance and evaluate it based on the choreographic intent of the artistic director. Lastly, there is a final class performance of learned components of the semester that emphasizes musical intricacies. Please note: Dress in dance attire on the first day of the class.
