Frame

 The performance space is framed by a yarn. The students look at the framed-space with intent noticing the differences between the general space and the framed space.

Portraiture

 Portraiture is the art or an instance of making portraits. The students use their bodies to experience instances of solo, dyadic, triadic portraiture, etc.

 

Score


Students create the score of the phrases they have created so far, so by drawing a rectangular space. Within that space, they draw their movement for their solo and ensemble phrases.

 

 Those who are making up, please, do the work on your own and add your reflection to Discussion Board.

Modern Dance's Final Reflection

Image
   1   A Way to Escape my Everyday Life Jenny Rivas This class brought many takeaways, especially because we explored so many different types of movement within modern dance. My main takeaway from this class is that there is no correct way to move our bodies. This class taught me that no matter what type of movement you are doing, it is expressing something; whether it is as little as moving your wrist to as big as jumping into the air, our bodies will always express something and that is so special about modern dance. Modern dance shows us that all movement is any type of movement and that is clearly seen in the different styles of modern that we studied in this course. This class was for sure experiential because as part of the course, we were required to explore these different types of movement and different styles of modern dance. The only time that I have taken a modern dance class was one time in high school and aside from that, I have never been exposed to mod...

  MODERN DANCE II RECITAL / SPRING 2024 ------------------------------------   SOLOS ----------------------------------------- 1   T he life cycle of the flower Dancer: Muthawi Alhandam Choreographer: Muthawi Alhandam Music: Wonderful Tonight by Eric Clapton The life cycle of a flower mirrors the cycle of life and relationships. A seed is planted, representing new beginnings. As it grows, the flower faces obstacles like harsh weather or poor soil, yet it stays resilient, adapting and reaching for the light. It blooms beautifully, much like how people and relationships flourish with care and perseverance. Over time, the flower fades, just as life and connections evolve or end. Yet, it leaves behind seeds for new growth, showing how challenges and endings often lead to fresh starts and the continuation of all living things. https://youtu.be/b78RfUCw_fU?si=qxTSvLgx7z27Or4V   2 Xopxe Dancer: Daniel Bron Choreographer: Daniel Bron Music: The Blue Danube by Strauss Inspire...
