    Dance Autobiography

    had a passion for dance. Whether I was at school, in the grocery store or at the airport, I was constantly dancing. At two-years old, I was enrolled in my first dance class and by the age of six, I was competing in my first dance competition. Many people think of dancing as spinning around a stage, wearing pink ballet shoes, but it’s nothing like that. For me, dance is seven hour rehearsals, calluses on my feet, sore muscles and a closet full of costumes. Most importantly, dance is my way of…

    For my dance report, I saw the Fall Dance at Adelphi University on December 4, 2016. It was called “Aszure Barton.” The two pieces that really stood out to me were “Tarantella” and “Consumed.” They both displayed great amounts of emotion through their choreography, backdrop, costumes, colors, music, and lighting. “Tarantella” and ‘Consumed” gave off opposite moods because of their specific components. “Tarantella” from August Bournonville’s Napoli was a very lively and cheerful dance. It can be…

    Dance Evaluation

    I believe that my final performance of my take on the Elements of Dance theme was satisfactory. Given my condition on the day, I am pleased with my focus during the dance and my overall performance. Three aspects that went really well, in my opinion, would be the intense energy that my partner and I brought onstage, our synchronization while performing, and the evident presentation of the light versus dark theme. Mary and I work well together, but I believe that during the performance, we were…

    Participants were selected based off of their perceived involvement in the dance community, and whether they could currently identify as being a dancer. Once the three participants were selected, they were notified in-person that they would receive 5 interview questions via email. Using the particular method of email, both the participants and myself were able to communicate asynchronously, making the process of gathering information much more convenient. After the email was sent and received,…

    Metonymy In Dance

    immediately be directed towards the metaphoric implications of each movement, but these metaphoric processes operate as a fundamental characteristic of dance. Physical gestures are an innate characteristic of the way people communicate with each other as they “…can reveal aspects of meaning that are not, or even cannot, be present in words alone” (Kövecses 72). Dance, at its simplest definition, is but an exaggeration of these human gestures; the choreographer can manipulate the movement…

    tool for research and solution. In defining “career longevity” for this specific research, I am focusing on preventing dance related injuries in order to lengthen the number of years of performing on stage. The average dancer stops performing in their 30’s. Increasing the longevity of movement ability positively correlates with increased performance opportunities and diversity in dance styles. Furthermore, more performance experience will allow the dancer to acquire more information that they…

    One of the most incredible video that I watched to complete a Dance Observation assignment for Dance class is the video of: “Wade in the Water from “Revelations” by Alvin Ailey Company. This video was published on YouTube on November 25, 2007 and performed at the Alvin Ailey American Dance Theater. This video is very beautiful and impressive at the first time I saw it. Then I keep watching it again to really focus on the detail of very movement and sections. The dancers presented a movement of…

    This past weekend, at the Stevie Eller Dance Theatre at the University of Arizona, I went to see the dance performance Here & Now. As I was buying my ticket, I did not really know what to expect from this concert. To be honest, I did not know really anything about this show that I had just paid to see. Originally, I thought that this show would just be a requirement for me to pass this class. However, after seeing this show, it became much more to me than just a grade. The dancers were…
