1	Dagens dansrörelse är morgondagens danshistoria : En kvalitativ studie om svensk jazzdanstradition och gymnasieelevers uppfattningar om jazzdans Lundholm, Emma January 2023 (has links) This study intends to highlight jazz dance in Sweden and its early establishment during the 1960’s and the 1970’s. The questions of issue are, ”How has the tradition of Swedish jazz dance been conveyed?”, ”What are some expectations and perceptions on jazz dance among upper-secondary school students who study dance?” and ”Is there a correlation between the tradition of Swedish jazz dance and upper-secondary school students’ perceptions on the genre?”. The study is a combination of a literature review and a focus group interview. The literature review maps the establishment and development of jazz dance in Sweden. The focus group consists of three upper-secondary school students who study dance. As a result, both the literature review and the focus group advocate for a historiographical perspective in jazz dance education. The students wish to see education in jazz dance techniques as well as jazz history during the practical classes. According to the pioneers, the cultural heritage and history of jazz is essential for the understanding of the artform. Therefore, it is relevant for teachers in jazz dance to educate their students on the theoretical aspects of the genre to connect the physical practices to the heritage.

2	Taktarter och dans : en studie i hur taktarter kan användas i jazzdansundervisning Larsson, Sara January 2022 (has links) The purpose of this essay is to inspire and find ways to incorporate different time signatures in jazz dance education. Through literature studies, a focus group and an own analysis leading up to the meeting with the focus group, I founded a base of knowledge, but also material to analyze. By comparing my different sources of information, I found that the different time signatures, have different qualities, but they are also affected by other factors such as the instruments, singing and how it is performed. During the meeting with the focus group, I also found that music and dance is personal and that feeling calm and secure with the music is important to be able to move freely to it. In the discussion I could see that there are a lot of ways that you can use different time signatures in jazz dance education. Some examples were to expand your musicality and musical knowledge, but also to highlight and use certain qualities in the different time signatures to develop your dynamic practice.

3	Att vara i jazz-dans : En kvalitativ studie om hur deltagare i dansundervisning upplever ”existentiellt varande” med hjälp av jazzdans Hellgren, Matilda January 2021 (has links) This study investigates how participants in dance education describe their experiences of a phenomenon called ”existential presence” with the help of jazz dance and what didactic factors makes it possible for them to experience it. With theory of the phenomenology-related lifeworld, the didactic relation map, and interview with low standardized questions as a method, came the results that show how the presence could be described in many different ways, how different individuals have different needs for the phenomenon to be possible, and that jazz dance and its strong relationship to the music is a possible opening for the presence to be. didactics existential flow jazz dance presence music spirituality ring shout didaktik existentiell flow jazzdans närvaro musik andlighet ring shout Pedagogy Pedagogik Humanities and the Arts Humaniora och konst
4	”…den här genren är ju liksom ute lite grann och identitetskrisar ganska rejält.” : uppfattningar om jazzdansens utmärkande egenskaper / "…this genre is kind of out there experiencing quite a substantial identity crisis." : perceptions of the defining characteristics of jazz dance Sahlin, Linnea January 2023 (has links) This study aims to explore the defining characteristics of jazz dance as a genre with the ambition of reaching a deeper understanding of the art form as well as clarifying the foundations for my own jazz dance teaching. Using a qualitative research method, the study examines the perceptions of four dance educators, each with experience in dancing and teaching different forms of jazz. Drawing on a phenomenographic perspective, the study identifies variations in perceptions through semi-structured interviews and categorization. The findings present six descriptive categories of important components within jazz dance including Body and Music Interplay, Relevant Music Choices, Freedom, Play and Individuality, Contrasting Dynamics, Technical Finesse and Body Control, and Interaction and Expression. Furthermore, the study discusses the challenges of defining jazz dance but highlights the significance of embodied musicality and Africanist aesthetics as key elements of the art form, as well as emphasizing the concept of "swing" as central to jazz and the perception of “jazziness”. In conclusion the study shows a broad variety in perceptions which contribute to an increased awareness and understanding of jazz dance as well as providing tools for communication in jazz dance teaching. Ultimately the study encourages further research on the topic. jazz dance jazzy dance education dance pedagogy defining characteristics variations in perceptions jazzdans jazzigt dansundervisning danspedagogik utmärkande egenskaper variationer i uppfattningar Performing Arts Scenkonst Pedagogical Work Pedagogiskt arbete
5	Fysisk träning inom jazzdansundervisning : en kvalitativ studie om hur jazzdanslärare beskriver utveckling av fysiologiska färdigheter i dansundervisning Nyman, Satu January 2023 (has links) This study aims to shed light on practices that jazz dance teachers have incorporated into their teaching in order to enhance development of physiological abilities, as well as examine how these practices have become part of their jazz dance teaching practise.The research was conducted through four semi-structured interviews where jazz dance teachers described how they enhance physiological abilities in their dance teaching practice, and which aspects impact their choices. The transcribed interviews were analysed using thematic analysis, supplemented by the application of selected principles for physical training. The results indicated that physiological abilities were mostly enhanced through conventional jazz dance technique training, within the conventional structural framework, and that the physiological aspect is not addressed in the early planning process, but comes along later following the progression of the dance technique training. Furthermore, the results imply that the social construction of a jazz dance training and convention have significant impact to the practices used to improve physiological abilities in jazz dance training. The conclusion is that jazz dance is recognised as a physically demanding genre, where technique training can enhance most of the physiological abilities. dance teaching education jazz dance fitness physical training aerobic fitness anaerobic fitness muscle endurance strength power flexibility neuromuscular coordination dans undervisning utbildning jazzdans fysisk träning aerob kondition anaerob kondition muskeluthållighet muskelstyrka muskulär explosivitet flexibilitet neuromuskulär koordination Performing Arts Scenkonst Pedagogical Work Pedagogiskt arbete
