Mental Representation of Ballet Elements and Movements

This workshop is designed to help you improve your understanding and application of key dance concepts such as Space, Rhythm, Dynamics, and Use of Body.  By understanding how these concepts work together, you will be able to enhance the quality of your movement and expression and feel more confident and joyful in your dancing.

After this workshop, you will have a greater awareness of how your dance movements are perceived and represented in space and time. Specifically, you will learn to analyze SPACE in terms of direction, level, amplitude, focus, grouping, and shape; RHYTHM in terms of tempo, duration, accent, and meter; DYNAMICS in terms of direct or flexible curves, and flow; and THE USE OF BODY in terms of posture, pose, locomotion, and gesture.

Through this workshop, you will be aware of your cognitive skills, and develop a deeper understanding of how to transform them into competencies.
