Introductory dance studio course exploring states of presence, perception, awareness, and responsiveness to one's self and environment through movement improvisation. Utilizing techniques of music visualization, contact improvisation, responding to sensory stimuli (visual, aural, kinesthetic) to create movement in the moment, this course is designed to develop freedom of thought and expanded personal movement vocabulary. The improvisation techniques range from aerobic to meditative. Creative games, spatial awareness, and problem solving are investigated in order to discover the innovative language of the body. Disability is not a limitation.
