Summary
"Master teacher Alma Hawkins describes for the first time her method for teaching creative movement and choreography. An opening discussion of creativity explains how dance performance has been influenced by the other arts. Subsequent chapters describe concepts such as shaping, feeling, and moving, with exercises for dancers to try out solo, in twos, or in small groups. These exercises will enable performers to improve their range of motion as well as the interest and quality of the dances they make." -- Back of book.
