Course Description:

'' This is a contemporary dance course. You are offered a breadth of study with opportunities to pursue specific interests such as choreography or community dance and education. In year one, you are offered a firm foundation in dance practice, choreography, understanding dance and the Alexander Technique. In years two and three, you are encouraged to develop your interests by choosing modules according to artistic interest or career aspirations. Optional modules include Dance Artists in Education and the Community, Dance as History and Teaching and Leading Dance. You also undertake a Dance Research Project in year three.

Classes in contemporary dance include partner work, contact/improvisation, repertory and performance. Choreography emphasises current approaches to performance making. You are encouraged to re-think conventional choreographic methods in making video dance and live performance.

The University Dance Festival offers final year students opportunities to make, perform and present their own work to a wider audience.

Throughout the course you will study the Alexander Technique for performance. You also engage with critical perspectives to locate your own practice in relation to current theory and professional developments in, for example, performance, community dance and education. DMU does not charge studio fees.

Teaching/assessment
Teaching methods include practical classes, workshops, lectures, seminars and performances. Assessment is through coursework rather than examination and is continuous, covering practical, verbal and written contributions. Excellent library resources, including videos, support your learning.
