one page paper
YANGYANGThis semester, my objective has been to give you exposure to contemporary dance practices in the 21st Century, from warm up to performance.
The warm up has focused on concepts such as head/tail connection, contraction/release of the spine (cat/cow stretch), core work, lengthening of the sides of the body, balance/stabilization and extension from the core to the periphery of the body.
You have been given movement combinations to explore rhythm, use of space, weight, relationship to others, dynamics approaches to movement and body shapes. You have also been asked to improvise and create your own movement based on your own preferences and movement repertoire. In our class choreography, we have used social dance (swing) and jazz/hip hop movements within a contemporary dance context.
Please read through this article that discusses the development of what we now call contemporary dance.

For your final writing assignment, please write a reflection paper sharing what you learned this semester about contemporary dance. Include 1) what you may have learned about your body in the warm-up or in the dances (what was helpful, what was challenging, what was new information). 2) How was the choreography created in class reflective of how contemporary dance is practiced today (please refer to the article and your own experiences). Share your experiences in learning/creating this choreography
