DANCE 100 - Choreography I

Lower Division

This course begins the study of making dances while focusing on the solo and duet form. Students will learn basic theories of choreography including: symmetry and asymmetry, phrasing, dynamics, rhythm, motivation, and music while also applying tools of analysis and critique. Through intense use of structured improvisation and movement assignments, students will discover ways to generate movement, expand their own movement vocabulary, take risks and create challenges to enable experimentation and originality.
