This studio course is a continuation of Modern Dance III. Em- phasis is on expanding the technical training of the student by increasing complexity of movement capabilities. More empha- sis will be placed spatial awareness, rhythmical structures, ex- ploration and on partnering. Continuing critical analysis will be expected, along with a sharpening of both the student's overall knowledge and aesthetic understanding of the dance form. The course will focus more attention on the student's in- dividual dance preparation. Attendance at and written cri- tiques of dance performances will provide deeper insight into the dance field. This course may be taken twice for credit.
