Bethany Formica uses her multi-company performance experience and eclectic skill base in a class designed to build up ideas and break down contemporary/modern dance technique. One need not be afraid
to sweat, laugh, or fall over. This introductory dance class is accessible and aerobic, so humor and high energy are all that are required. Contemporary Modern I is designed to put participants in touch with their
bodies, help them focus, connect, and collaborate, while allowing every individual's voice to be heard. This course encourages a sense of playful humanism, evoking new ways of thinking and moving, problem-solving and multitasking. The dance playing field is leveled, and the value of play and laughter enlivens the body in completely unexpected ways. If taken for academic credit, concert attendance and two short papers are required.
