Abstract:
This thesis unpacks a commonly expressed phrase in the dance industry – ‘Teaching dance beyond the steps’ – by exploring teaching practices that develop dance and dancers in children’s ballet lessons. Exploring an area that is commonly practiced and often talked about, but rarely studied, this study shows how ballet education builds particular ways of moving as well as particular behaviours and dispositions deemed desirable in ballet. Enacting Legitimation Code Theory, this thesis undertakes a qualitative case study of children’s Royal Academy of Dance ballet classes through analysis of non-pa

Abstract:
Dance and architecture have much in common; both involve the experiential movement of the human body through space, and both convey meaning through form. In ballet there are two kinds of meanings, the metaphorical and the literal, but the meanings are important as forms. In architecture, the forms are important when they respond to a use. In a ballet building, where the main use is the dance itself, how can the design of such a building be expressive of its function? How can ballet be analyzed and interpreted to give meaning to a building? Can architecture help to give new meanings to

Abstract:
The title Savage Ballet came into being because, so far as I articulate, it aptly describes the beauty and horror that are borne from combining art and instruction. Poetry, itself, is a ballet. And poetry, itself, is savage. It is a ballet of words carefully choreographed and practiced and spun into being. Poetry is the body politic of the ballet. It is beautiful and often fancy when the curtain rises, but behind the scenes and tucked into toe shoes is the instruction – the gnashing of teeth and blisters and broken nails. Thus, the savage side of poetry presents itself. And, may it also be sai

Abstract:
INTRODUCTION: The prevalence of ACL injuries is increasing in previous years. One of the most common studied kinematic risk factors related to ACL injuries is a resultant weak, leg axis alignment known as the dynamic knee valgus angle presented during a vertical drop jump [8, 14, 15]. Hewett et. al. concluded that a knee valgus angle was a primary predictor of the mechanism that leads to an ACL rupture [8]. By increasing the excessive knee valgus angle during a two-legged DVJ, an athlete is in turn increasing the possibility of a high knee valgus moment, which can increase the anterior tibial

Abstract:
When the Joffrey Ballet reconstructed the 1913 production of Le Sacre du printemps in 1987 and restaged Les Noces in 1989, the reception of these ballets drew upon the prevailing ideals of authenticity that also existed in music. The period’s Early Music revival emphasized the historically-informed performance of past music, using period instruments and techniques to approach an assumedly “authentic” performance. Over the course of twenty years in the late twentieth century the repertoire performed and recorded expanded chronologically closer to the present, challenging original conceptions th

Abstract:
<p> Ballet is a world of exquisite artistry and strong tradition that has evolved beyond its origins as an elite court dance of 17<sup>th</sup> century France into a global art form reaching audiences throughout the world. Yet, to this day, ballet remains mostly white. This inequity is found not only on the stage, but in the ballet school, executive suite, and boardroom.</p><p> Racial inequity in ballet is born of a complex system of historical, social, and organizational issues, including: artistic tradition, racism, socioeconomics, cultural policy, education, funding, management, and gover

The following internship report documents my marketing internship with the New Orleans Ballet Association in the summer of 2011.

My primary goals were to create and distribute marketing material concerning the upcoming season and to assist the Marketing Coordinator with event promotions. This internship report provi

Abstract:
The British choreographer Kenneth MacMillan (1929-1992) has a prominent place in the narrative tradition of the Royal Ballet. As a major storyteller in the history of the company, his ballets with intense, dramatic stories are an important part of the dance heritage of British ballet. This thesis focuses on one of MacMillan’s first narrative achievements, the one-act ballet The Invitation (1960), and studies the main thematic concerns and stylistic strategies that it deploys. The methodology that shapes the investigation is dance narratology, an underexplored discipline with roots in narratolo

Abstract:
Nesse trabalho, problematizamos as experimentações vividas com um Grupo de Dança Contemporânea, denominado de Ballet Contágio, configurado a partir de usuários de um CAPS – Centro de Atenção Psicossocial. Nesse sentido, traçamos uma nova vizinhança, em que a arte e também a imagem se tornam aliadas para a composição de um dispositivo tecnoestético. Em tal trama, a fotografia nos permite a passagem da imagem dançada no espaço como uma experiência estética e libertadora. Em um ballet envolvente, dentro e fora se misturam e promovem brechas na imagem dançante, no instante em que promovem uma nova

Abstract:
Paris, sous la restauration, était l'un des principaux foyers du ballet en Europe. Les spectacles de danse présentés dans la capitale étaient très nombreux et ne se limitaient pas à ceux que proposait l'académie royale de musique (l'opéra), mais trouvaient renouvellement et enrichissement sur les scènes des boulevards et plus particulièrement au théâtre de la porte Saint-Martin. Durant les années 1820, l'art chorégraphique fut profondément influencé et modifié par l'esthétique romantique qui s'imposa au ballet comme aux autres arts de la scène.
