Body Knowledges: Dance Science

This subject equips students with the skills and knowledge to understand the mind-body and movement through the nexus of art and science. Emphasis is placed equally on scientific knowledge (dance science) and embodied practice (somatic modes of learning) which are both essential for the training of elite professional dancers. By weaving together these two complementary threads (dance science with somatic practice), students develop a broad foundation on which to develop further advanced dance training.
