KDB214 Dance Technique 4

This unit develops to a pre-professional level the technical and artistic skills accumulated through the previous three Dance Technique units. To support your technical development, you will continue to be exposed to, and physically participate in, complementary practices associated with dance training. This is the final unit in a series of four practical units which establish the critically important routine of daily technique training for the elite dance professional. This unit will allow you to engage in the experience of advanced technical dance training in ballet and contemporary dance. In the current artistic climate, it is essential for you to possess a strong command of dance technique and complementary practices. Through embodied knowledge and reflective practice, training methods must adequately prepare you for the rapidly increasing demands placed on dancers in order to successfully locate yourself within the dance industry as an emerging professional.
