This course provides a study of the movement skills necessary for actors and performers to function physically during rehearsals and performances. Emphasis is on developing the physical characteristics appropriate for a play set in various locales and time periods. Students are introduced to physical exercises that develop a sense of balance, relaxation, coordination, agility, and control. Analyses of rhythm and flow in contemporary and period movement styles are explored, as well as basic safety and techniques for stage-fight and combat choreography.
