Modern V

Jennifer Nugent

Inside improvisational and set technical structures, challenges and phrase work, this class hopes to offer an experience of how movement might live rather than become positioned. The base material for physical tuning and practicing will be similar to Modern IV and this class will explore sensation, instinct, and the inherent musicality inside the body in order to investigate what is movements language; to consider technique and our own movement desires as languaging – as a conversation with dance. Modern V will move more quickly, will reorganize material daily and layer learned material with challenges that help us consider physical disorientation, reorganize/disorganize movement patterns, and re-enliven “set” movement.
