Join the NDA Board of Directors in attending the 2008 Scholar/Artist Lecture. The Scholar/Artist is chosen for exceptional contributions to the dance field. Abstract: "The dance world in our society places enormous pressure upon us to look and act in what it considers 'aesthetically acceptable'. Research in medicine, psychology, somatics and gender studies gives us a context for seriously examining our own teaching practices." |
