great for beginners, we touched on contact improvisation and the class emphasizes on low-level dance elements like leveling, speed, and active listening. There are readings and films sometimes, but a great class nonetheless
This class was really interesting, despite being very far outside of my comfort zone. Although I did not learn the most about detailed anatomy, I learned a lot about how my body works and the way it is all connected. Classes were really relaxed.
I took this course as a second semester Feb last fall and it was a wonderful experience. Most of my classmates were seniors or senior febs on their way out and so their experience and what they brought to the table were invaluable. This is one of two classes I've taken at Middlebury where my classmates and I formed a close community inside and outside of class. It helped that the class was just 12 people and our labs on Wednesday afternoons had us embrace looking and feeling silly as we worked through improvisational exercises. Core readings for this course were Braiding Sweetgrass by Robin Wall Kimmerer and Becoming Animal by David Abrams. No dance experience required!
