When our senses dance : sensory-somatic awareness in contemporary approaches to Odissi dance in IndiaSen, Sabina Sweta January 2016 (has links)
This research investigates sensory-somatic awareness based approaches to the conditioning, training and performance of Odissi dance in India. Through a multidisciplinary and embodied methodology it analyses the practices of three contemporary Odissi dance institutes and a selection of individual dancers in India, who are moving beyond the traditional methodology. Drawing from ethnographic fieldwork in India, this research explores how sensory-somatic approaches incorporated by these dancers generate meaning-making and in what ways this enriches the dancers’ experience of dancing Odissi. As an outcome of the fieldwork, the term sensory-somatic is proposed and analysed in line with the dancers’ embodied experience of dancing Odissi. The analysis entails a paradigm that embraces the corporeal, sentient and socio-cultural bodymind, and the sensory aspects of senses, sensation, perception, sensibility and sensuality. These form two layers: the somatic and sensory which merge together as the sensory-somatic awareness. It takes into consideration the sensory perception and awareness leading to an agentic, enactive and embodied meaning-making and emotional engagement of the dancers. It also examines how the changing socio-cultural situation has been continuously affecting the Odissi dance embodiment. This thesis does not address the religious aspect and the experience of the audience in Odissi performance. The main focus remains the dancers’ individual experience of learning and performing Odissi dance. Moving away from the study of Odissi dance just as a reflection of the state, regional culture and representation of mythologies, this thesis is an investigation of the Odissi dancer’s meaningful, embodied and lived experience of Odissi dancing. It contributes to the debates on body-mind relationship, emotional engagement, place of the ‘self’, the student-oriented learning, psychophysical training and performance, and rasa-bhāva aesthetics. This study reveals that the sensory-somatic awareness is based upon reflexivity, independent enquiry, psychophysical health, bodymind awareness and leads to empowerment, agency, autonomy, plurality, confidence and responsibility, a level of relief from gender biases, and an inclusive approach to learning and performing.

Previous issue date: 2010 / Resumo: Este trabalho de pesquisa acadêmica de doutorado versa sobre a história de vida artística da bailarina brasileira Denise Stutz, em seus percursos de atuação cênica, no período de 1970 até os dias atuais. A investigação está centrada nas experiências vividas pela bailarina em seus diferentes projetos poéticos, intitulados como momentos de formação, transformação e afirmação na dança. Como procedimento metodológico foi adotada a seleção, com recorte analítico, de suas narrativas orais por meio da transcriação (MEIHY, 2005) de seus relatos de vida trazidos em depoimentos gravados em momentos de rememorações; e de suas narrativas cênicas extraídas de seis espetáculos escolhidos como obras de referência (Maria, Maria; Folia; Não Olhe Agora; Homo politicus; 3 solos em um tempo e Justo uma imagem: cartas e processos). As narrativas cênicas foram trazidas para o texto através dos procedimentos de análise de movimento e análise de espetáculos adaptados dos estudos de LABAN (1978) e PAVIS (2003) para esta pesquisa. Assim, a fala e os movimentos cênicos de Denise Stutz vão sendo revelados no decorrer da narrativa, contracenando voz e corpo na escrita textual e imagética de uma vida em dança. Observamos que o corpo desta bailarina foi formado por diversas referências estéticas como balé clássico, dança moderna, teatro de rua, butoh e improvisação; em momentos de pertencimento a grupos, companhias de dança, coletivos artísticos, além de momentos solo. Nestas trajetórias, foi possível perceber as opções estéticas e políticas adotadas por este corpo ao dançar, como também, refletir sobre a reorganização do ambiente da dança contemporânea em relação à cena, à movimentação do corpo, às funções do bailarino e às formas de criação. Tais transformações refletem a afirmação de Denise Stutz como bailarina e de sua dança como modo de produção de sentido e expressão de vida. / Abstract: The work presents several different axis of investigation performed by a doctoral research on the life of Denise Stutz, Brazilian dancer who remains actively performing since the 1970s until the present days. The perspective of this research focuses on the experiences of this ballerina throughout her multiple poetic paths - her moments of formation, transformation and affirmation through dance. The methodological procedure adopted was the selection, with an analytical approach, of oral narratives through the transcreation (MEIHY, 2005) of her stories that were brought to life in recorded statements at times of recollection, and through narratives drawn from six scenic spectacles chosen as reference works (Mary, Mary, Folia, Do not Look Now; Homo politicus; three soils at a time and a fair picture: Letters and processes). The speech and movements of Denise Stutz were revealed during the narrative opposing the voice with the body, resulting in written text and imagery of a life in dance. We observe that this ballerina's body was formed by extensive references - classical ballet, modern dance, street drama, butoh, improvisation - going from moments of belonging to groups, dance companies and art groups, as well as solo projects. By investigating this path one may realize the different aesthetic and political choices made by this body when dancing and also one can reflect on the reorganization of contemporary dance's environment in relation to the scene and to the assignment of roles and forms of creation. Denise Stutz's transformations reflect her self-affirmation as a ballerina and also present her dance as a form of production of meaning and expression of life. / Doutorado / Educação, Conhecimento, Linguagem e Arte / Mestre em Educação

Handbook on eating disorders for dance teachers: A guide to understanding anorexia nervosa, bulimia nervosa and promoting proper nutrition in young female dancersKrogman, Jennifer Tena 01 January 2002 (has links)
This project discusses the problem of eating disorders in dancers. The development of eating disorders can be attributed to sociocultural development, and psychological factors. Dance places an emphasis on thinness, and the pressure to obtain ideal standards of thinness appear to be particularly salient in the development of eating disorders in dancers.

Konstrukce a management identity striptýzových tanečnic / Construction and Management Identity of Exotic DancersKvapilová, Lucie January 2014 (has links)
Diplomová práce "Výchova tancem. Evaluace dopadů předmětu taneční a pohybové výchovy se zabývá zhodnocením efektů předmětu taneční a pohybové výchovy, který byl před několika lety zařazen do RVP (Rámcově vzdělávací program) pro základní školy. Cílem této práce je podat přehled o oblastech, v nichž může taneční a pohybová výchova být přínosem a naopak poukázat na případné negativní nebo problematické stránky tohoto předmětu. Informace o této problematice byly získávány prostřednictvím kvalitativních výzkumných metod, tedy pomocí polostrukturovaných a skupinových interview a také metod zúčastněného a nezúčastněného pozorování v hodinách taneční a pohybové výchovy. Informátory/kami v tomto výzkumu byli lektoři/ky taneční výchovy, pedagogové/žky tříd, v nichž je tento předmět vyučován a také žáci/kyně. Největší přínosy taneční a pohybové výchovy lze shledat ve sféře sociálních vztahů, ale i v oblastech seberozvoje jedinců a rozvoje některých klíčových kompetencí. Taneční výchova například přináší potenciál pro transformaci nefunkčních kolektivních vztahů, stává se v některých případech nástrojem začlenění jedinců upozaděných nebo vyčleněných z kolektivu. Taneční a pohybová výchova také stimuluje dětskou fantazii a do určité míry může vést k rozvoji kreativních schopností u některých jedinců. Podporuje...

Naked truth: a glimpse into the lives and experiences of exotic dancersTillier, Rachel Joanne 08 1900 (has links)
This research explores the lives and experiences of female exotic dancers with the aim of
gaining an empathic understanding of their involvement in the stripping industry. The
stereotypes and generalizations of exotic dancers and the stripping industry undermine
the exotic dancer's ability to be seen as an individual with her own story and her own
experiences. The participants of this research were selected through convenience
sampling and consist of three female exotic dancers. The researcher interviewed the
participants using a semi-structured interview format and focused on the dancer's
experience within the exotic dancing industry, her family history, her relationships, and
personal life. The data was analysed using thematic network analysis. The thematic
networks are often contradictory and inconsistent with the common stereotypes and ideas
held about exotic dancers. The results indicate that some exotic dancers experience
meaning, healing, gratification, and power within their work and live responsible,
productive lives. / Psychology / M.A. (Clinical Psychology)

Des(armando) jogos corpo-vocais: experiências com atoresbailarinos / (Des) constructed vocal-body Plays: experiences with dancers-actorsPereira, Daiana Felix 29 October 2018 (has links)
A presente pesquisa, de natureza teórico-prático-artística, propõe ampliar os diálogos entre as Artes da Música, da Dança e da Atuação, pelo viés da Técnica Vocal, para atoresbailarinos. A metodologia teve como finalidade buscar um instrumental coerente, claro e elaborado, em que foi possível introduzir questões de cunho teórico para o desafio da prática. Para tanto, foram pesquisadas formas metodológicas que abarcassem minhas experiências pessoais e vivências por meio da Autoetnografia, do Método Descritivo e das Entrevistas Semi-Estruturadas. Tendo como tema a voz na sua multiplicidade ao integrar novas formas na cena artística, foi constituído um espaço para debate e reflexão sobre o fenômeno vocal e sua potencialidade criativa, através dos encontros com os integrantes do Laboratório de Pesquisa e Estudos em Tanz Theatralidades (Lapett), grupo sediado na Escola de Comunicações e Artes da USP e dirigido por Sayonara Pereira. As narrativas descritas pelos integrantes do Lapett, bem como as entrevistas realizadas com quatro atoresbailarinos atuantes na cena artística de São Paulo, ajudam a tecer voz, dança e teatro, trazendo informações preciosas para a tese. O processo experimental realizado com o grupo Lapett, pelos jogos cênicos e brincadeiras cantadas, mostrou, na prática, a técnica vocal, e especificou as relações entre movimento, respiração e canto. Além disso, este estudo enfatizou a musicalidade para a cena, a partir da improvisação e jogos ligados à consciência e ao uso do corpo como centro da ação musical, dialogando com elementos da Técnica de Alexander e da pedagogia de Koellreutter. / The present research, from theoretical- practical- artistic nature, proposes to expand the dialogue between the Arts of Music, Dance and Performance, through Vocal Technique, for dancers- actors. The methodology had intended to get a coherent, clear and elaborated instrumental, in which was possible to introduce theoretical issues for the challenge of the practice. To do so, were researched methodological ways to englobe my personal experiences and living through Autoethnography, from the Descriptive Method and the Semi-Structured Interviews. Taking as its theme the voice in its multitude by integrating new forms in the artistc scene, was set up a space for debate and reflection on the vocal phenomenon and its creative potentiality, through meetings with the members of the Research and Studies Laboratory in Tanz Theatralidades (Lapett), a group based in the School of Communication and Arts of the University of São Paulo, directed by Sayonara Pereira. The narratives described by the members of Lapett, as well as the interviews made with four (4) acting dancers- actors in São Paulo art scene, helped to weave voice, dance and theatre, bringing valuable information for the thesis. The experimental procedure performed with the Lapett group, through scenic games and sung plays, showed, in practice, the vocal technique and specified the relationships between movement, breathing and singing. In addition, this study emphasized the musicality to the scene, from the improvisation and games related to consciousness and the use of the body as a center of the musical action, dialoguing whith elements of the Alexander Technique and pedagogy of Koellreutter.

Adolescent Male Dancers' Embodied Realities / 青少年男舞者与现实之奥妙Li, Zihao 08 June 2010 (has links)
This dissertation looks at adolescent male dance students who challenge the dominant perceptions of masculinity by participating in dance, an art form which has been subjected to feminine and homosexual stereotypes.
With a multi-methodological approach—qualitative, arts-informed, autobiography, interviews, videotape, and performance—this research investigates and explores the largely unknown realities regarding adolescent male dance students; why they decide to take dance; what makes them continue or stop dancing; how their perceptions of dance are transformed over time; how they feel when they are dancing; the realities they embody in studio and on stage; their message to the public about who they were, who they are, and what they want to be in and through dance.
The researcher challenges the socially constructed epistemology that dance is merely an entertainment while exploring the relationship between mind and body; gender, race, and identity; literature and literacy; physical education and dance; the professional and the novice; the hows and the whys; female and male dance educators; dance pedagogy (theory) and curriculum delivering (practice); and the association of homosexuality and heterosexuality in the context of dance and its effect on adolescent male students’ willingness to dance.
This study shows that families, friends, teachers, school administrators, dance class environment, media (So You Think You Can Dance), and technology (internet) have all created various levels of impact on adolescent males’ decision to participate in dance at a high school. Data and implication from this research can serve as a catalyst for future studies on adolescent male dance students. Findings can also be applied to dance programs at all levels, curriculum development, and teacher education. This electronic dissertation encompasses graphs, photos, audio and video clips, webpage links, and even a full-length documentary movie to enhance the research finding and maximize the power of a multimodal design (Jewitt & Kress, 2003).
