Somatic Movement Arts: Embodied Human Being

DANCE 575S

This course, Somatic Movement Arts: Embodied Human Being combines practice and theory to address aspects of somatic movement education as applied to creative praxis and daily life. Somatic Movement Education is an embodied system of learning which uses movement, touch, imagination, theory, discussion, creative exploration and more to help support our range of responses to environmental and internal stimuli, while deepening our senses of connection and awareness. We will investigate and study the human body as a living, expressive and moving entity underscored by ethical principles foundational to somatic education such as: inclusivity, respect, and non-judgment.
