DANCE106I

This course is designed for adventurous dancers, choreographers and student dance leaders, who want to innovate, and develop a personal choreographic aesthetic. Students will not only explore a variety of dance styles presented by peer choreographers and professionals in the field; they will also be encouraged to bring in outside influences and inspirational material, including new media and video performances. Through exposure to unfamiliar movement languages, students will have the opportunity to remix styles, design their own dance practice, and create a community of dance artists experimenting together. Student dance team leaders and dancers with a strong interest in choreography are highly encouraged to participate. The course will consist of weekly workshops taught by a different Stanford dance club each time, followed by composition intensives and assignments facilitated by the instructor. Students interested in facilitating a workshop should contact Instructor (Aleta Hayes ahayes1@stanford.edu).
