Prof. Jenny Coogan

Contemporary Dance

My technique classes are embedded in the Humphrey-Limón Modern Dance tradition. This lineage speaks of the human condition and of the dignity of the spirit. Strength and vulnerability are expressed through the body in its interaction with gravity, in the rhythms of its breath and in the eloquence of its gestures.

 

 

My work in somatic practices, particularly the Feldenkrais Method finds increasing application in all of my teaching. Integral to my teaching is the investigation of dynamic ways to improve movement skills and to find multiple options on how to approach movement with a better understanding of the functional organization of the body. The object of this learning is to remove outside authority from the learning process as awareness and efficiency increase while dancing.
