In this workshop, participants will explore strategies for using Laban Movement Analysis (LMA) to achieve standards-based student learning outcomes in dance. LMA has its origins in the career of dance artist and theorist Rudolf Laban (1879-1958). LMA informs much dance education theory and practice in the United States, and is at the heart of New York’s 92Y Dance Education Laboratory’s (DEL) Model of Dance Education. In addition to exploring LMA-based pedagogy, workshop participants will gain access to DEL curricular materials via the DELCOR website.

Frederick Curry MA, CMA, PMA®-CPT, is a Professor of Professional Practice in the Department of Dance, Mason Gross School of the Arts, Rutgers University, where his focus is on dance pedagogy and Laban Movement Analysis. He is also on faculty at the Laban/Bartenieff Institute of Movement Studies and the 92Y Dance Education Laboratory (DEL) in New York City, and was previously on faculty at NYU Steinhardt School.
