I've published my first book! Please check it out. "Post-choreography Jérôme Bel’s Choreography and Movement in Malfunction" By Shuntaro Yoshida, Routledge, 2025 https://lnkd.in/dqMt8Ci6 "This book sheds light on the practice of French choreographer Jérôme Bel, who is active in the fields of performing arts and contemporary art. Shuntaro Yoshida examines a case study of collective creation involving the choreographer and a group of amateur workshop participants. The focus is on Atelier Danse et Voix (Dance and Voice Workshop) (2014) and workshops held with local diverse participants in Brussels, Venice, and Munich after the cancellation of the Dance and Voice Workshop. This study elucidates Bel’s creative method by exploring the relationship between choreographer and participants in a situation where the typical framework of actors has been expanded. The focus of the case study is not so much the choreographic methodology itself, but the relationship between the method and the participants and the ways in which the choreographer cedes creative decision-making power to participants. In order to investigate Bel’s creative method, this study makes use of participant observation field notes taken during a rehearsal. Additional data sources include Bel’s emailed materials, performance programs, and interviews with participants.This book will be of great interest to students and scholars in theater, performance, and dance studies."

Be the Visionary: How to Take Charge When Hired for Dance Projects When you're hired for a project, remember—they're counting on your expertise because they know nothing about dance! It's up to you to plan everything and protect your work and your dancers. Let's discuss why taking initiative and being the visionary is crucial for the success of your projects. #DanceLeadership #Choreography #TakeCharge #PaulBecker

Last month, I attended a choreography dance session for the first time in nearly a decade. Naturally, things have changed, and everyone around me was dancing far better than I was. While they quickly picked up the entire chereography, I was still figuring out the first few steps. Nonetheless, I thoroughly enjoyed the session. The vibe was fantastic, and even though everyone was much younger than me, they were incredibly encouraging. Watching them inspired me to keep going. Yesterday, I went for another session. Once again, I couldn't keep up with the others, but the atmosphere and energy were simply awesome. For me, it's not about mastering every step perfectly but it's about the vibe and the journey. These young dancers make me feel amazing and motivate me to keep coming back. I've realized this experience applies to everything in life, whether it's your job or any other activity. The people around you can help you grow, encourage you to do better, and inspire you to learn new things. If you find yourself in an environment that makes you feel demotivated or worthless, it's time to seek out people who uplift and inspire you. #positivity #growth

Many dancers have not formally studied the art of choreography. ⁠ ⁠ "Intro to Choreography in Dance Education: A Process to Teach Students How to Create Dances" is our popular mini-course that offers dance teachers experience with a system that can be used to teach basic elements and principles of choreography. This short six-week course explores how to encourage self-expression in your students through dance-making. ⁠ ⁠ How does the studio teacher, or performing arts center instructor, teach the choreographic process to young performers? How does the education director of a dance company structure dance-making activities within school residencies? How does one teach pre- and in-service teachers, or instructors in community recreational programs, how to teach this process to students with little or no dance experience?⁠ ⁠ Perhaps you are experienced in making dances but now want support learning how to teach others some of the skills you already naturally possess!⁠ ⁠ In this mini course, you will walk through, or model, a process that you can use to teach your own students how to create their own choreography. Past course participants have shared that the course not only impacted their teaching, but also their own choreography, creative growth, and passion for the art of dance! ⁠ ⁠ Register now at ndeo.org/opdi-m18

🌟 **Unlocking the Art of Choreography** 🌟 Being a good choreographer isn't just about creating beautiful dance moves; it's about storytelling, collaboration, and continuous growth. Here are a few key principles I live by: ✨ **Embrace Creativity**: Always seek to innovate while respecting the foundations of dance. Your unique voice is what sets you apart! 🤝 **Listen and Collaborate**: Great choreography often emerges from collaboration. Encourage your dancers to share their ideas and perspectives. 📖 **Tell a Story**: Every piece should convey a narrative or emotion. Engaging your audience on a deeper level makes your choreography memorable. 💪 **Stay Adaptable**: Be open to change—sometimes the best ideas come from the strengths and insights of your dancers. 💡 **Keep Learning**: Stay inspired by exploring other art forms and nurturing your creativity. Growth is a lifelong journey! Let’s keep pushing boundaries and inspiring each other in the world of dance! 💃✨ #Choreography #Dance #Creativity #Collaboration #Storytelling #ContinuousLearning

Unveiling the surprising secret to our artistry: precise choreography! 💫 As artists, our gestures need to be both free and meticulously planned. We approach the creative process the way dancers approach performing. Each gesture is rehearsed and choreographed, our technique is corrected and perfected. Rhythm guides our hands which are tasked to express our deepest emotions and creativity. But creativity needs to be sharpened: our Research & Development team recently held a workshop on freedom and gesture. Together, we experimented with new techniques and hand placements, thus creating new ways to interpret the world around us and express our emotions. #ateliersberger #creativeprocess #newtechniques #craftsmanship

Dreamers! 🌟 **Turning Dreams into Dance: My Choreography Journey with the Song "Dreamer"** 🌟 I recently had the pleasure of choreographing a performance to the inspiring song "Dreamer." This piece isn't just about dance—it's about embodying the spirit of those who dare to dream, those who strive against the odds, and those who believe in a brighter tomorrow. The choreography was designed to reflect the journey of a dreamer: starting with the initial spark of a vision, through the struggles and setbacks, and finally culminating in the triumph of achieving what once seemed impossible. Each movement was crafted to evoke the emotions of hope, resilience, and unwavering determination. Working on this project was not just an artistic endeavor; it was a reminder of the power of dreams and the importance of nurturing them. The energy and passion brought by the dancers truly brought the vision to life, creating a performance that resonated deeply with everyone who watched. As a choreographer, my goal has always been to tell stories through movement, and "Dreamer" allowed me to explore the limitless possibilities of what can be achieved when we believe in ourselves. To all the dreamers out there—keep dancing, keep dreaming, and never stop believing in the magic that you can create. #Choreography #Dreamer #DanceInspiration #CreativityInMotion #StorytellingThroughDance #NeverStopDreaming
