  • The Social-Psychological Outcomes of Dance Practice: a Review
    DOI:10.2478/v10237-011-0067-ySport Science Review, vol. XX, No. 5-6, December 2011 The Social-Psychological Outcomes of Dance Practice: A Review Alexandros MALKOGEORGOS* • Eleni ZAGGELIDOU* Evagelos MANOLOPOULOS* • George ZAGGELIDIS* ance involvement among the youth has been described in many Dterms. Studies regarding the effects of dance practice on youth show different images. Most refer that dance enhanced personal and social opportunities, increased levels of socialization and characteristic behavior among its participants. Socialization in dance differs according to dance forms, and a person might become socialized into them not only in childhood and adolescence but also well into adulthood and mature age. The aim of the present review is to provide an overview of the major findings of studies concerning the social-psychological outcomes of dance practice. This review revealed that a considerable amount of researches has been conducted over the years, revealed positive social- psychological outcomes of dance practice, in a general population, as well as specifically for adults or for adolescents. According to dance form the typical personality profile of dancers, danc- ers being introverted, relatively high on emotionality, strongly achievement motivated and exhibiting less favorable self attitudes. It is proposed that a better understanding of the true nature of the social-psychological outcomes of dance practice can be provided if specific influential factors are taken into account in future research (i.e., participants’ characteristics, type of guidance, social context and structural qualities of the dance). Keywords: dance, youth, personality traits, socialization Introduction Dance can be performed at home or at a park, without any equipment, alone or in a group, is a choreographed routine of movements usually performed to music.

  • ABSTRACT Title of Dissertation / Thesis
    ABSTRACT Title of Dissertation / Thesis: MAKING DANCE THAT MA TTERS: DANCER, CHOREOGRAPHE R, COMMUNITY ORGANIZER, PUBLIC INTELLECTUAL LIZ LER MAN Lisa Traiger, M.F.A., 2004 Thesis Directed By: Visiting Associate Professor Karen Bradley, Depar tment of Dance Washington, D.C. -based choreographer and dancer Liz Lerman, a MacArthur Award recipient, has been making dances of consequence for 30 years. Her choreography, her writing and her public speaking tackle “big ideas” for the dance field and society at large. Lerman articulates those ideas as questions: “Who gets to dance? Where is the dance happening? What is it about? Why does it matter?” This thesis investigates how Lerman has used her expertise as a choreographer, dancer and spokesperson to propel herself and her ideas beyond the tightly knit field into the larger community as a public intellectual. A brief history and overview defines public intellectual, followed by an examination of Lerman’s early life and influences. Finally, three them atic areas in Lerman’s work – personal narrative, Jewish content and community -based art – are explored through the lens of three choreographic works: “New York City Winter” (1974), “The Good Jew?” (1991) and “Still Crossing” (1986).

  • The Evolution of Yeats's Dance Imagery
    THE EVOLUTION OF YEATS’S DANCE IMAGERY: THE BODY, GENDER, AND NATIONALISM Deng-Huei Lee, B.A., M.A. Dissertation Prepared for the Degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY UNIVERSITY OF NORTH TEXAS August 2003 APPROVED: David Holdeman, Major Professor Peter Shillingsburg, Committee Member Scott Simpkins, Committee Member Brenda Sims, Chair of Graduate Studies in English James Tanner, Chair of the Department of English C. Neal Tate, Dean of the Robert B. Toulouse School of Graduate Studies Lee, Deng-Huei, The Evolution of Yeats’s Dance Imagery: The Body, Gender, and Nationalism. Doctor of Philosophy (British Literature), August 2003, 168 pp., 6 illustrations, 147 titles. Tracing the development of his dance imagery, this dissertation argues that Yeats’s collaborations with various early modern dancers influenced his conceptions of the body, gender, and Irish nationalism. The critical tendency to read Yeats’s dance emblems in light of symbolist- decadent portrayals of Salome has led to exaggerated charges of misogyny, and to neglect of these emblems’ relationship to the poet’s nationalism. Drawing on body criticism, dance theory, and postcolonialism, this project rereads the politics that underpin Yeats’s idea of the dance, calling attention to its evolution and to the heterogeneity of its manifestations in both written texts and dramatic performances. While the dancer of Yeats’s texts follow the dictates of male-authored scripts, those in actual performances of his works acquired more agency by shaping choreography. In addition to working directly with Michio Ito and Ninette de Valois, Yeats indirectly collaborated with such trailblazers of early modern dance as Loie Fuller, Isadora Duncan, Maud Allan, and Ruth St.

The research focuses on “leotard ballets”, which are viewed as a distinct sub-genre of plotless dance. The investigation centres on four paradigmatic ballets: Balanchine’s The Four Temperaments (1951/1946) and Agon (1957); Forsythe’s Steptext (1985) and the second detail (1991).

    QUESTIONS OF PRACTICE Commence to Dancing By David Vaughan Introduced by Alastair Macaulay THE PEW CENTER FOR ARTS & HERITAGE / PCAH.US / @PEWCENTER_ARTS Commence to Dancing The Senior CriTics AwArd, delivered By David VaughAn at The DanCe CriTics AssoCiation at DanCe new AmsterdAm, new york CiTy, on 17 June 2007 Introduction by Alastair Macaulay This is the Dance Critics’ Association; and I hope that many of you here first got to know David the way I did—by reading him in print. In 1965, he was a founding figure at Ballet Review and, alone of that magazine’s founders, he still contributes regularly to it. In fact, its “Annals of The Sleeping Beauty” department would scarcely exist without him. For many years, he was the Financial Times’s distinguished New York dance correspondent. His book Merce Cunningham: Fifty Years (Aperture, 2005) is indispensable to anyone writing on the subject, and I say that as someone who has sometimes groaned at its sheer weight across my knees. I myself came to know him through his book Frederick Ashton and His Ballets (A & C Black, 1977)—“the Ashton book,” as it was known for many years. For me, this came at an opportune moment: I was twenty-two, and the two Royal Ballet companies staged an unusually large number of Ashton ballets in the year it was published. I had read the book from cover to cover the moment it came out; then I read it again from cover to cover; and then, every time I went to see any Ashton performance, I would read the relevant section both before setting out and then on returning home.

  • Building Ballet: Developing Dance and Dancers in Ballet
    Building Ballet: developing dance and dancers in ballet Elena Mariemma Lambrinos A thesis submitted in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Department of Sociology and Social Policy Faculty of Arts and Social Sciences The University of Sydney 2019 Statement of originality This is to certify that to the best of my knowledge, the content of this thesis is my own work. This thesis has not been submitted for any degree or other purposes. I certify that the intellectual content of this thesis is the product of my own work and that all assistance received in preparing this thesis and sources have been acknowledged. ELENA MARIEMMA LAMBRINOS October 2019 ii ACKNOWLEDGEMENT OF COUNTRY The author would like to acknowledge and pay respect to the traditional owners of the land on which The University of Sydney now stands, the Gadigal people of the Eora Nation. It is on their ancestral lands that this research was conceptualised, undertaken and written. iii ABSTRACT This thesis seeks to unpack a commonly expressed phrase in the dance industry – ‘Teaching dance beyond the steps’ – by exploring teaching practices that develop dance and dancers in children’s ballet lessons. The study shows how ballet education builds particular ways of moving as well as particular behaviours and dispositions that are deemed desirable in ballet. In doing so, this thesis explores an area that is commonly practiced and often talked about, but rarely studied. Enacting Legitimation Code Theory, this thesis undertakes a qualitative case study of children’s Royal Academy of Dance ballet classes. It draws on non-participant, video recorded observations of five consecutive classes at Grade 1 and Intermediate Foundation levels, teacher interviews, follow up observations, and curriculum documents.

  • The Art Form of Dance
    SDCD Arts Notes An Edu cational Study Guide from San Diego Civic Dance / San Diego Park & Recreation “Dance is the only art of which we ourselves are the stuff of which it is made.” --Ted Shawn Welcome! The San Diego Civic Dance Program welcomes you to the school-day performance of Collage 2009: Road Trip , featuring the acclaimed dancers from the San Diego Civic Dance Company in selected numbers from their currently running theatrical performance. The City of San Diego Park and Recreation Department’s Dance Program has been lauded as the standard for which other city-wide dance programs nationwide measure themselves, and give our nearly 3,000 students the ability to work with excellent teachers in a wide variety of dance disciplines. The dancers that comprise the San Diego Civic Dance Company serve as “Dance Ambassadors” for the City of San Diego throughout the year at events as diverse as The Student Shakespeare Festival (for which they received the prize for outstanding Collage entry), Disneyland Resort and at Balboa Park’s December Nights event, to name but a few. In addition to the talented City Dance Staff, these gifted dancers also are given the opportunity to work with noted choreographers from Broadway, London’s West End, Las Vegas, and Major Motion Pictures throughout the year. Collage 2009: Road Trip represents the culmination of choreographic efforts begun in the summer of 2008. “It’s important for me to take the audience on a journey,” says Dance Specialist Andrea Feier, “and this year, with all the other things going on, I wanted something lighter and more fun compared to a ‘typical’ dance concert.
