Prerequisite(s): Department Permission Required. In Movement for the Actor I, students will develop body awareness, locate areas of habitual tension and increase their ability to find release, strength and flexibility in the body. They will use these skills to activate their unique presence with grounding, breath and impulsivity. Students will learn how to work collaboratively with an ensemble and create original movements that begin with improvisation and culminate in solos, duets and group compositions. Students will articulate experiences, challenges and changes in the body through reading, experiential and written assignments throughout the course.
