On behalf of Expert Village I am Benjamin Ford Asriel. I'm with Dance Lab NYC here at Stepping Out Studios and today we'll be talking about post-modern dance. So, I think one of the, the places or the venues that is actually the closest to post-modern dance is like children's creative movement classes. That's a space where anything is acceptable and the children there are really exploring their bodies or what lies within them, what they can do with them, what emotions can be channeled through their bodies, how they can express themselves through movement. That really is exactly what any contemporary post-modern teacher is trying to do. We're just trying to hone the function of the body in order that someone can express themselves through movement. So it's about, for me at least, it's about increasing the range, so all the technique is not necessarily a proper way. It's not "this is the way to do it," but rather, hopefully though studying anatomy or through knowing yourself and your own body you are able to do more with your body.
