戏剧艺术学士-舞蹈

UCSC的舞蹈课程侧重于本科生在相关戏剧艺术和一般人文教育领域内的个人成长。该学科的技术培训是密集的，但不以在大学环境中广泛而成熟的经验为代价。我们的计划并非旨在让学生融入任何能够从强大的个人艺术家及其第二代或第三代追随者中幸存下来的舞蹈系统。相反，它旨在为学生提供识别各种表演风格的形成和效果的方法，了解表演领域以外的舞蹈和动作的用途，并在形成个人风格，发展他们的自由方面发展自己的选择选择他们希望遵循的道路。舞蹈课程的核心内容是：1）在生理上正确的动作原理和力学的基础工作； 2）有意识地利用动作技巧来实现
The Dance program at UCSC focuses on the undergraduate student's individual growth within the spectrum of related theater arts and a general humanities education. The technical training in the subject is intensive, but not at the expense of wide, maturing experience in the university environment. Our program does not aim to mold students into any of the systems of dance which survive from strong individual artists and their second- or third-generation followers. Instead it aims to provide students with the means to recognize the formation and effect of a variety of performance styles, to understand the uses of dance and movement outside the area of performance, and to develop their own choices in forming a personal style, liberating them to choose the paths they wish to follow. The core of the dance curriculum is 1) foundation work in physiologically correct movement principles and mechanics, 2) conscious use of the craft of movement for the realization of personal intentions in performance and choreography, and 3) understanding of a wide variety of styles in dance performance, history, and ethnology.
