Teaching Dance Improvisation

A Beginner's Guide

About this book

Teaching Dance Improvisation serves as an introduction to, and a springboard for the author's theories, practices, and curriculum building of dance improvisation as a technique. By taking a similar approach to teaching ballet, modern, jazz, tap, or hip hop, this book supplies its reader with an easy-to-follow roadmap in order to begin building and incorporating dance improvisation into dance studios/classrooms and curriculums.
