Parte-se do pressuposto de que os conceitos da dança moderna podem ser aplicados no viés da (re)-descoberta do corpo como uma unidade psicofísica e contribuir de forma qualitativa para a atuação da pessoa, seja cotidiana ou cênica. Do mesmo modo foram aplicados alguns princípios da técnica do Tai ji Quan. Acredita-se que a busca de uma proposta de treinamento psicofísico para dançarinos deve, antes de tudo, objetivar o desenvolvimento global dos mesmos, a partir do auto-conhecimento e descoberta do corpo, como unidade psicofísica do ser humano / Abstract: The central idea of this research consists of the application of theoretical concepts of the modern dance (North American and German), approached by their pioneers - Dalcroze, Delsarte, Isadora Duncan, Denishawn, Martha Graham, Doris Humphrey, Rudolf Laban and Mary Wigman - conjugated to the beginnings of Tai Ji Quan, more specifically with respect to their linkages, seeking to provide facilitative technician-expressive instruments for the contemporary dancer in his creative process and poetic constructions. It breaks of the presupposition that the concepts of the modern dance can be applied in the inclination of the (re)-discovery of the body as a unit psychophysical and to contribute in a qualitative way for the person's performance, be daily or scenic. In the same way they were applied some beginnings of the technique of the Tai ji Quan. It is believed that the search of a proposal of psychophysical training for dancers owes, before everything, to aim at the global development of the same ones, starting from the solemnity-knowledge and discovery of the body, as the human being's unit psychophysical / Mestrado / Mestre em Artes

This thesis focuses on the stocks in two major stock exchanges in China: the Shanghai Stock Exchange and the Shenzhen Stock Exchange. In order to understand the overall performance of the Chinese stock markets, the research compares the performance among Chinese stock markets, other emerging stock markets, and the S&P 500 Index during the 1990's.

Sizhu was written for the standard Pierrot ensemble though with percussion replacing the singer. This particular ensemble is capable of producing a multitude of colors while maintaining the balance inherent to a chamber group. The Chinese name, si’zhu, is a literal and figurative metaphor for these elements of the ensemble. Literally translated “silk” (sī) and “bamboo” (zhú), the word is a generalization for Chinese classical music developed in the Jiangsu province (Jiāngnán sīzhú) that utilizes strings, or “silk” instruments, and flutes, or “bamboo,” instruments in combination. A typical work involves two or more players of either ilk. In reference to the work presented here, Sizhu is a metaphor for the western instruments (flute and clarinet as “bamboo,” and violin and cello as “silk”) that are employed within the piece. It also refers to my use of a Chinese melody in the compositional process. The song, Er Quan Ying Yue (The Moon Reflected In Second Spring), was composed and performed regularly on the streets by the blind erhu player A Bing. The song has been fragmented, stretched, and varied to the point of near inscrutability, though it becomes more comprehensible following the mid-point. It inspires both structural and local events. The work also employs aspects of the spectral style. The first section is a slow distortion and transformation of the A harmonic spectrum; specific partials are emphasized as the spectrum expands and contracts. Additionally, fragments of the Chinese melody appear within the confines of each specific harmonic structure. The second part completely diverges utilizing assimilated pentatonic scale permutations. Finally, the third section synthesizes these two elements of musical material within the piece as the instruments morendo into silence.

Introduction : Le vieillissement modifie la composition corporelle, ce qui accélère la perte d'autonomie. L'activité physique pourrait être une intervention préventive pour contrer ce phénomène. Or, 62 % des femmes post ménopausées sont inactives (Institut de la statistique du Québec, 2009). Objectif : Évaluer l'effet de 12 semaines en tai chi chez des femmes post ménopausées sur la composition corporelle et la capacité fonctionnelle. Méthode : Quarante-six femmes post ménopausées ont été recrutées et divisées en 2 groupes (Novices : NO et expertes : EX en tai chi). Parmi ce nombre, 15 novices et 18 expertes en tai chi ont terminé l'étude. La composition corporelle, les capacités fonctionnelles ainsi que l'état de santé ont été mesurés pré et post tests. Résultats : Le score au test de la chaise s'est significativement amélioré (NO : p<0.001 vs EX : p=0.003) chez nos 2 groupes mais seul nos EX ont une amélioration significative au test de l'escalier (p=0.004). De plus, la perception de l'état de fatigue a diminué significativement dans nos 2 groupes (NO : p=0.002; EX : p=0.03). Seul le groupe NO a connu une augmentation significative de la force musculaire (Kincom; p=0.02). Finalement nous observons une diminution significative de l’IMC (p=0.03) et du tour de taille (p=0.007) chez le groupe EX. Conclusion : Le tai chi semble efficace pour améliorer la composition corporelle et les capacités fonctionnelles chez des femmes post ménopausées novices ou expertes et ce même si ces dernières étaient autonomes et n'avaient pas encore atteint l'âge de 70 ans. Ainsi, le tai chi devrait être considéré comme une avenue adaptée pour maintenir un vieillissement réussi. ______________________________________________________________________________
