Ifill, Valerie J. – Journal of Dance Education, 2023

Christi Camper Moore – Research in Dance Education, 2023
It may appear commonsensical that undergraduate dance majors, sharing a programmatic experience within a bounded space and time, might feel connected to others involved in that experience.

Little is known about how individuals with histories of sexual trauma experience dance in non-clinical settings.

Rachel Rugh; Ashlee Humphries; Noor Tasnim; Julia C. Basso – Research in Dance Education, 2024
Use of breath, close physical proximity, and tactile cues are some of the unique facets of dance training.

This data-driven project explores the benefits and challenges of…

Hollett, Ty; Peng, XinYun; Land, Susan – Journal of the Learning Sciences, 2022
Background: This paper examines ensemble learning in the context of ballet. We use more-than-representational theory to account for the "invisible" dimensions of ensemble learning, such as sensations, energy, or intensity that bodies sense, circulate, and evoke in others. We illuminate the mobile architectures that emerge in ensemble…

Dullea, Rhoda – Research in Dance Education, 2022
Dance as a performing art can be marginalized in general school arts provision, included in curriculum for its benefits in health and well-being rather than its intrinsic aesthetic appeal. In the Irish national curriculum, dance is primarily categorized as physical education, and can be culturally decontextualized because of this approach. Arts…

Nyama McCarthy-Brown; Karen Schupp – International Journal of Education & the Arts, 2023
Postsecondary dance programs in the United States have been called upon to reconsider their curricula and pedagogical approaches in relation to racial equity.
