DANC 343 Ballet IV 

This is a concentrated inquiry of and exploration in upper level intermediate classical ballet. It is expected that students at this level have attained both an intellectual and physical understanding of the aspects of placement, alignment, and the required strength for execution of complex movement sequences. The integration of movement material with cognitive operations and movement intentions, including physical memory and sensory awareness, is refined to develop quality of movement as a platform for artistic expression. Reading and written assignments are integral to the course to promote further critical thinking and analysis of ballet. This course may be repeated up to 12 credits unless otherwise noted.  Additional lab fee applies.
