DELVING INTO DANCE HISTORY
An online workshop series exploring the virtual resources of Jacob’s Pillow
Dates & Times
The Roots of Tap Dance | Sundays, February 21 & 28, 2021 | 2:30-5:30pm Eastern
DELve into the roots of tap dance as a distinctly African American art form in this upcoming Zoom workshop offered through Dance Education Laboratory (DEL) at Jacob’s Pillow with Ann Biddle (Director of DEL at Jacob’s Pillow) and Felice Santorelli (DEL Facilitator). Pulling from Jacob’s Pillow Dance Interactive, a growing online collection of dance videos and multimedia essays contextualized by leading dance scholars and thought-leaders, participants will explore the rich and complex dance form and learn about a range of tap dance artists from the past to the present. A guest tap artist (to be announced) will visit the course to offer an embodied master class in the basics of tap dance and body percussion. Designed to re-envision teaching dance history as an inquiry-based and embodied practice, DELving into Dance History is for K-12 dance educators, college-level dance educators, and dance history enthusiasts to enhance remote and in-person teaching and discovery.
Fee: $99 per course (includes access to Dance Education Laboratory resources and materials)
Financial assistance is available if needed.
