Welcome to the UPCA Dance Major Family!
In this course students will learn dance technique with a focus on Choreography and Professional Artistry. At the the end of their journey, students will have accumulated a portfolio that includes their Headshot, Mock Resume, and a Repertoire of dance. Here is a brief overview of what we will be doing in the course: Intro to Professional Dance Company The Company (Dancing as one!) Space Formations Transitions Pathways Problem Solving Time Rhythmic Patterns Musicality 2.0 Energy/Action Laban Balance and Rotation Creation and Performance Dance and Emotions Thinking Bodies Poetry in Motion Dance and Props Freestyle Feedback Cultural Connections Choreographic Tools Vocabulary Variation Dance History 101 I am so excited to see what this year has in store for our dancers! I will keep you updated on things in the dance department via our dance website. It is very important that I create an open lane of communication with the family this year. Please fill out the blue sheet and send it back to me as soon as possible. If you have any questions or concerns please feel free to send me an email! |
