Alan Danielson
teaches advanced workshops in music/dance for dancers,
teachers, choreographers and musicians. Beyond
Rhythm workshops are studio courses that explore
phrasing in movement and music. They explore the ways
that physical training, performance and theatricality
are affected by phrasing and rhythm. Participants vary
the timing of exercises and movement phrases, discovering
how this alters the use of muscles, space and intent.
Beyond Rhythm promotes an articulation
of time, which expands the possibilities for movement,
choreography and performance. |
