Analysis of Motor Learning for Optimal Success in Dance Choreography
Research Mentor(s)
Haines, Susan E.
Description
The objective in this research proposal is to explore the process of motor learning in a real world dance experience. Through working with choreographer Lillian Barbeito of Bodytraffic Dance Company for the Dance BFA Capstone, I will be able to answer the question to what extent does one succeed in a dance rehearsal setting through the process of motor learning. This research is important for breaking down movement and analyzing it for optimal success and injury prevention. With this in depth analysis, a stronger understanding of motor learning and movement will be obtained.
