    RESOURCE GUIDE FOR EDUCATORS AILEYDANCE. PHOTO BY JOE EPSTEIN 1 A LETTER FROM OUR EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR “Dance came from the people and must always be delivered back to the people.” - Alvin Ailey Dear Educator, For over sixty years, Alvin Ailey American Dance Theater has carried out the credo of its founder through performances, school and community programs, professional training of young dancers, classes for the public, and more. To Mr. Ailey, dance was more than a series of steps; it was a means of expressing emotion, of telling one’s story, of honoring the past and rejoicing in what is to come. In fulfillment of his legacy, we strive to offer abundant opportunities for young people to experience the possibilities of dance, no matter who they are or where they come from. We hope the exercises and activities suggested in this resource guide will provide you and your students with a creative and interactive inlet to the world of dance and the work of the Alvin Ailey American Dance Theater, or help you prepare them to attend a dance performance. By bringing your students to an Ailey performance, participating in an Ailey Arts In Education residency, or simply sharing with them the joy and practice of dance, you are engaging the next generation in the Ailey legacy; one expressly dedicated to expanding the minds, talents, and dreams of young people. Thank you for your contribution, and enjoy! Sincerely, Bennett Rink Executive Director, Alvin Ailey Dance Foundation 2 RESOURCE GUIDE FOR EDUCATORS AILEYDANCE. PHOTO BY JOE EPSTEIN The content and suggested activities in this guide can be integrated into an established school curriculum.

  • Dancer and Choreographer Banning Bouldin Brings Her Contemporary Dance Collective New Dialect to OZ Nashville
    Dancer and choreographer Banning Bouldin brings her contemporary dance collective New Dialect to OZ Nashville August 21, 2014 John Pitcher A decade ago, anyone in Nashville who wanted to study contemporary dance had just one option: leave town. The city, for all its progress in the other arts, remained a modern dance Mojave, an arid landscape that provided few opportunities to young dancers who wanted to follow in the footsteps of Merce Cunningham, Trisha Brown and Alvin Ailey. One young artist who became part of Nashville's dance diaspora was Banning Bouldin, whose contemporary dance collective New Dialect performs Thursday evening at OZ Nashville. As a child growing up in Music City, Bouldin was able to study classical dance at Nashville Ballet. But she had to move to New York and later to Europe to pursue her passion in contemporary dance. "I left Nashville at age 17 and didn't return for more than 10 years," says Bouldin, who studied dance at The Juilliard School in New York City before launching into a successful contemporary dance career that included stints with Hubbard Street 2 and Aszure Barton & Artists. "I finally came back to Nashville in 2010 and realized that things were different. There seemed to be a real interest in contemporary art." Indeed, much had changed in Nashville while Banning was away. Homegrown institutions such as the Alias Chamber Ensemble and Zeitgeist Gallery had been cultivating a taste for contemporary music and art among the city's arts aficionados. Even the Nashville Ballet had been flirting with artistic adventure, introducing such innovative contemporary dance series as Attitude and Emergence.

  • The Dance Teacher: the Ideal Case and Daily Reality J
    The Dance Teacher: The Ideal Case and Daily Reality J. H. A. Van Rossum The dance teacher is a central figure in the world of dance; the impact of the dance teacher on the career of a young dancer can be decisive. A dance teacher is more often than not described as authoritarian. The present study investigated the vari- ous dimensions of the dance teacher’s behavior. To map the teacher’s behavior, a dance-adapted version of the Leadership Scale for Sport (LSS; Chelladurai & Saleh, 1980) was constructed as the Leadership Scale for Dance (LSD). The LSD was administered to both teachers and students of the dance department of the Amsterdam Theatre School. In addition, dance teachers were asked to rate daily class behaviors of the themselves as teachers, and dance students were asked to rate their current dance teacher. While the characteristics of the ideal teacher were very similar for both teachers and students, large differences appeared in the rating of daily class activities. Ratings of the teachers and dance classes are interpreted within the framework given by the LSD scales, that is, as indications of the behav- ior characteristics of the ideal dance teacher. Introduction Professional dancers usually start their training for a professional career early, often at the age of 8 or 9 years. Over the following 10 years, increasing amounts of energy, time, and attention are invested in the dance career (Van Rossum, 2001a). During this period, the role of the dance teacher is of great importance and cannot be underestimated. In the domain of sports, parents are about as important in the career of a talented athlete as is the coach (Van Rossum, 1995); within the domain of dance, the role of the dance teacher (comparable to the sports coach) is of much more importance when compared to that of the dancer’s parents (Van Rossum, 2001a).

    CAROLINA PERFORMING ARTS 2010/11 BeijingDance/LDTX Tuesday & Wednesday, April 12 & 13 at 7:30pm carolina performing arts 10/11 1 carolina performing arts 10/11 3 Dear Friends For the last several months, we at Carolina Performing Arts have been working to finalize the schedule for our 2011-12 season. Every year, I find this process exhilarating and challenging, rewarding and frustrating. Our 2010-11 season has been filled with performances from legendary, established artists such as Yo-Yo Ma, Chick Corea and McCoy Tyner, as well as emerging voices like Nicola Benedetti, Sidi Larbi Cherkaoui (with his Sutra), and the young virtuosi who make up Gidon Kremer’s Kremerata Baltica. And there is much more to come in these last months. As we work to craft our new season, selecting works that engage, delight and enliven our 2010/11 SEASON audiences, I am constantly reminded of the budgetary considerations that make curating a season so difficult. As you probably know, the costs associated with bringing the caliber of art we have all come to expect from this series far exceed the revenue brought in from ticket sales alone. As we handpick each performance, I am constantly forced to consider cost, to weigh our curatorial mission against our bottom line, to ask myself, “Can we afford to bring this work to our audiences?” Many exciting artists do not make the cut. All told, ticket sales make up about 45% of the money needed to keep Carolina Performing Arts running. In a surrealist thought experiment, my colleagues in development and I often wonder what our season would look like at 45%.
