Welcome
Welcome to the online student’s companion to Creative Ballet Teaching. This useful resource draws on the fields of Laban/Bartenieff Movement Analysis, dance pedagogy, and somatic education to provide you with all the tools needed for technical and artistic development, self-assessment, and reflection. Clearly divided into three main parts, the manual covers:
- Technique and Artistry: a co-creative relationship
- Improving balance and motion
- 'Deepening Dynamism'
This dynamic resource includes downloadable chapters which contain guided explorations, reflective questions, and numerous activities to help you apply movement concepts to your dancing.
