THE REMAINING 90 MINUTES ON DAYS 1 & 3 WILL BE A "PLAY SESSION": IN A SAFE AND COLLABORATIVE ENVIRONMENT, STUDENTS ARE CHALLENGED TO MAKE CHOICES THROUGH PROVIDED PHRASE WORK AS THEY EXPLORE NEW METHODOLOGIES, INTERPRET, CONNECT, AND RESPOND TO MUSICAL ELEMENTS TO ULTIMATELY UNCOVER THEIR MOVEMENT PREFERENCES.

IN ADDITION TO TRADITIONAL-STYLE TECHNIQUES THAT FORTIFY A DANCERS' ABILITY TO PARTNER, THIS CLASS EMPHASIZES PERSONAL ACCOUNTABILITY AND THE EFFECTIVE YET MEANINGFUL WAYS ONE CAN CONTRIBUTE TO THEIR ENVIRONMENT/COMMUNITY BY UNDERSTANDING THEIR INDIVIDUAL STRENGTHS.
