Full textTo say that the masculinities are woven into the fabric of a pre-existing culture is not enough. One must go further and explore how culture itself is constituted by, or more precisely, constituted through the masculinities. As William Doty notes in his Myths of Masculinity (1993), culture not only produces but also is produced by stories. Ancient legends and sagas, like myths, are, to a large degree, perpetuated by the modern male dancer and athlete. However, as contemporary iterations of the masculinities, male athletes and dancers have evolved beyond the scope of myths and into new cultural forms. Their emergent story threads through this dissertation.
The masculinities represent a diverse array of possibilities and pluralities. What, then, holds them together as a coherent cultural force? This dissertation is, in large part, devoted to answering that question by way of a perspicuous inquiry conducted into a) the binarisms of gender, such as hetero-normativity and homophobia, b) the existential and archetypal nature of being, c) Cartesian mind-body dualities, and d) paradigms and practices of male athletes and dancers themselves.
In his The Structure of Scientific Revolutions (1962), Thomas Kuhn used "paradigm" to explain historical shifts in the practice of the hard sciences. Subsequently, Michel Foucault, in The Order of Things (1966), appropriated the word in a hermeneutical analysis of the human sciences. It is his unique exegesis of the history of knowledge that is used to track the historical arc of the masculinities.
This dissertation ultimately moves beyond the perspectives of Kuhn and Foucault to the work of feminist Judith Butler. In Bodies That Matter (1993), Butler maintains that one's gender is a cultural construct and that the process of gendering, though performative, is largely unconscious. If gender and sex are mere social constructs, where does that leave the nascent logos of an athlete or dancer's body? A counter-argument is made that in order to be coherent, the masculinities must possess, at minimum, a mindful body in addition to an embodied mind.

Full textAutobiographies have been written by notable 20th Century choreographers, establishing a strong connection between autobiographical writing and the art of choreographing. The autobiographical process, specifically the act of self-reflection, lends itself to the formation of a self-image, which is evident in both the choreographers' writing and their choreography. Because of similar processes in choreography and autobiographical writing, choreographers are inclined towards the autobiographical act, as it is an invaluable tool for self-discovery and expression. Through this process, choreographers have been able to formulate and perpetuate lasting images of themselves, supported by both their choreographic work, and their written autobiographies. Examples of this can be seen in the works of 20th Century modern dance choreographers: Isadora Duncan, Martha Graham, Yvonne Rainer and Twyla Tharp.

This study of the dance experiences of related men and boys pursues overlapping and related research goals. It is an investigation about reflective teaching practice in the process of developing an emergent curriculum for this multi-generational group of men and boys. It is an investigation about the communicative moments between participants through which members expressed their pedagogical regard for each other, their needs, desires and their dance learning. And it is an investigation about this group of men and boys as an example of aesthetic community, a community engaged in expressing and mediating individual style and dispositions through a group process and resulting in deeply shared aesthetic meanings and group style. Fourteen participants in six family groups danced together on seven Saturdays in a small community north of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. Participants ranged in age from five-years old to more than forty-five years old. Dance curriculum was designed in reference to the teacher's knowledge and experience of creative movement for primary aged children, and in reference to the teacher's dance performance and choreographic experiences and experiences of parenting. Based on detailed transcriptions of two-camera video documentation of the seven sessions, a narrative analysis thickly describes significant movements of participants, before, during and after the sessions, as well as interactions and participants' utterances. Post-session captioned drawings are discussed in detail following each session. Major findings are then presented as related to three research goals: reflective practice for emergent curriculum design, intersubjectivity as it occurred in this example of inter-generational dance education and an examination of this group of learners as an example of aesthetic community. Findings are discussed in relation to relevant literature and recommendations posed for further research.

Full textThe interplay of three expressive modes (music, dance and emotional display) underlie the workings of the White Mask dance ritual among the Bwaba people of Burkina Faso, giving shape to its main concern which is to make manifest a relationship between humans and bush spirits. Although tied to the principal Bwaba cult of the do, it is this ritual’s close association with griots and the connection with bush spirits that it puts into effect counts the most. By providing an intermediary space allowing for interactions between visible and invisible realms, this ritual renders certain aspects of the relationship between griots and bush spirits perceptible. By jointly implementing musical and dance forms, as well as a number of stipulated expressions of delight, White Mask performances allow participants to experience bush spirits’ presence and their benevolent involvement. While music anchors the ritual in the visible realm, the masked dance allows the invisible to intrude into the visible, human one. As for expressions of delight, they bear witness to the benevolent nature of the relationship between humans and bush spirits that this ritual seeks to bring about. Music, dance and emotional expression, then, compose a totality whereby the greater or lesser success of a White Mask performance can be appreciated in terms of concrete feelings

The purposes of this study is to find how gender stereotypes and masculinities affect male belly dance instructors’ learning and coaching, to investigate the representation and the relationship between gender stereotypes and masculinities, and to examine the status of the male dancers in belly dance. Male belly dance instructors are the research subjects. The researcher employs qualitative research methods, including participant observation and in-depth interview to collect data, including pictures, videos and interview transcripts. The results show that (1) male belly dance instructors are usually the professionals in other dances before becoming belly dance instructors; (2) the obvious gender stereotyping is found in the belly dance studios, even in the male coach’ studios, male students are easily squeezed out by others and it is hard for them to continue the classes; (3) the professionalism of male belly dance instructors can avoid gender stereotypes when coaching; and (4) the diversity of belly dance and its course design can make breakthrough in gender stereotypes and attracts more male belly dancers and students.

Aidan Chambers’ Dance on My Grave, published in 1982, with ambiguity of words, is considered a literary work of Young Adult Literature. Proved by Aidan Chambers that homosexuality is never a subject, Dance on My Grave has still received comparatively much attention on the gay identity of the boy in the book, ignoring the boy who actually considers himself to a male not a gay. This thesis tries to base on the text, takes the gay identity and none-masculinity of the main character as the differences among males, aims to examine the socialization process the male hero, Hal, from the cultural code, and the individual’s resistance against the society, to reflect the commonalities of our human hearts in Dance on My Grave. And it finds out that unearth the grave, is the bitterness in a man’s coming of age built by the relinquishment of one’s ambiguous self, and the surrender to gender order.

Life is transformation and transformation requires a change of spatial relationships, an opening. Since time immemorial, ritual—personal, societal transformation—has always been physical, requiring an action, the physical manifestation of an intention, of a yearning, whether symbolic or literal. The transformation effected by ritual begins as bodily action, and spreads to the ritual subjects’ (and witnesses’) consciousness; it begins with a physical choice, and affects relationships, status, attitude, life. Based on these postulates, on the conviction set forth by Jerzy Grotowski that theatre is exchange, sharing, an opening to one’s self an others, and inspired by the writing and work of artists/scholars interested in this opening—Eugenio Barba, Grotowski, Steve Paxton, Lin Lee-Chen among others—this thesis attempts to connect psychophysical dance-theatrical disciplines that are inherently and intimately homologous, affirming and discussing their ritual nature. Arguing that ritual is always a spatial transformation which begins (and results) in opening, it presents three disciplines—Grotowski’s early physico-theatrical training and research, Lin Lee-Chen’s technique and approach toward performance and life, and the practice of Contact Improvisation—as compatible, revolutionary and highly valuable methodologies aimed at shaping a more plastic, organic performative body-mind, less hindered by personal and cultural habits and blockages, more aware, adaptable, at ease. Expanding upon Richard Schechner’s efficacy-entertainment dyad, extending beyond, betwixt and between its ritual-theatre continuum, this thesis argues that when theatre (dance) is practiced as something beyond mere spectacle, as a live, honest exchange, a sharing of in-formation—putting into form messages and meanings through the performers’ bodies—then it is ritual, from preparations to public sharing. In the space for beholding (theatre’s Greek root, theasthai-tron) what is witnessed and the witnessing itself have the potential to transform spatial, personal, societal relationships.

Abstract With the discourse of dance sport is "sissy", how do elementary and junior high school male students’ experience of dance sport relate to gender stereotypes? This research aims to analyze the interaction among elementary and junior high school male students’ dance experience and gender stereotypes in their daily lives of schools. The research adopts qualitative approach.The research methods contain interviews of ten male students who join dance sport and participative observation. The major conclusions of this research are as follows. First,as regards to motivation, male students' personal interests are greater than those of study, but they are influenced by the traditional social male role expectation and Taiwan's education system, which will eventually break their way towards dance sport. In the course of learning, male students learn the process like a caterpillar into a butterfly, from the hardships of frustration slowly learning, accompanied by peers, getting better, until the stage blooming confident glory. Senced,the participants are divided into three types: "Emotional", "Clever" and "Masculine". Among them,the type of "Emotional" male students are more likely to suffer from gender distress in their daily lives, they are the only way to turn through the idea of their own advantages into the dance sport and daily life among the self-confidence while more comfortable to show the body, but the resistance against the mainstream discuse has not yet seen.

After 1949, Taiwan folk dance began to develop and entered into the embryonic period of its development. The classical dance that this paper is going to discuss belongs to the folk dance. Its development was based on the drama figure, and with the study on music and dance in Han and Tang Dynasties, the classical dance has been developed to some degree. Especially that in recent years, exchanges and interactions between Chinese Mainland and Taiwan on dance has increased. The training method of "Beijing ballet style" which was developed by Chinese Mainland in 1956 was introduced to Taiwan. After then difficult external body movements were added to this training method so as to touch the audience's senses. This integration also made the subsequent dancer training turn its focus from the appreciation of body beauty, cultural heritage and connotation to the technical requirement, which made the classical dance lose its way during its development. In light of this phenomenon, this research make Chinese official dance teaching materials ─ " SYLLABUS FOR CRADED EXAMINATION ON CHINESE DANCE " as the object of study. This set of teaching materials includes three parts—basic skills, physical movement and rhythm and Chinese Folk Dance. This research chooses the dance training part which contains the physical movement and rhythm as the example for analysis and explores the cultural heritage and physical connotation of classical dance by analyzing this set of materials’ construction, content and its application in and impact on Taiwan. Research methods used in this paper includes the analysis of literature and materials, in-depth interviews and analysis of creation process of Chinese classical dance. And by virtue of cross-comparison of multi-party research and analysis, this research clarifies the general mixed perception of folk dance, finds out the source of classical dance, knows its vein of development so as to ensure the preservation of its essence and guide its future development, and finally turns back to the implementation of the this set of materials in Taiwan, and then gives advice and reflection, which is the main purpose of this research. According to the results of this study, it is found that the application of this set of materials in the classroom of folk dance do not achieve great results, which is because there are many problems in its promotion. But despite of these implementation problems, this set of material indeed has something that is worth learning because the teaching of Taiwan folk dance focuses more on martial arts in general than on the physical movement and rhythm of classical dance, which is why students coming from the classroom of folk dance have weaker performance in physical movement and rhythm. Therefore, if this set of materials can be used together with basic skills courses, it can further help improve the dance performance of students. In this way not only the national dance teaching quality of Taiwan can be enhanced, learners can also learn that dance performance is more than physical movements. It contains various dancing arts like dancing emotions, breath rhythm and the transmission of the mood of movement. Keywords: teaching of folk dance; classical dance; physical movement and rhythm, drama figure.

The main purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of 12-week aerobic dance training courses on physical fitness of industrial high school male students with mild mental retardation. The subjects of this study consist of 21 industrial high school students, average age=16.4 ±0.6 years, with mild mental retardation. Eleven students had received aerobic dance training and the other 10 students took general physical education (3 days per week). Before and after the experiment, all of the students were asked to take the physical fitness tests, including cardiorespiratory endurance; muscular fitness; flexibility and body composition. The aerobic dance training course was conducted 3 days per week, 45 minutes each day and lasted for 12 weeks. The exercise intensity was set at 55-70% and 70-80% max heart rate of first 6 weeks and later 6 weeks, respectively. The collected data was analyzed with t-test, and the results were as followed: 1.After 12-week aerobic dance exercise, the students who have taken aerobic dance training courses improve significantly in their physical fitness, including 1600 run and walk; sit up; standing long jump; sit and reach and body mass index. (p<0.05) However, the students taking general physical education do not have significant improvement in their physical fitness. (p>0.05). 2.The items of physical fitness of students receiving aerobic dance training courses are better than those of students taking general course. However, there was no significant difference between two groups. The results show that the 12-week aerobic dance training courses of industrial high school male students with mild mental retardation have positive effects on their physical fitness.

The thesis intends to examine agility and coordination of male basketball team in NTUA Municipal College after applying Hi-Low Impact Aerobic Dance to the training program. This study uses qualitative research method, inclusive of participant observation, data collection technique, interview method, questionnaire method, and induction. I find that Hi-Low Impact Aerobic Dance, especially High-Low Aerobic, can increase coordination and agility of the basketball players. High-Low Aerobic focuses on moving upper and lower limbs, through Cha Cha Dance, Slides, and Jab Steps. The upper-limb movement is a non-inertial but high intensity exercise, when gradually learned, is conducive to better performance of the basketball players in terms of coordination and agility, and can improve their cardiovascular function. For comparative analysis, I use Wilcoxon Singed Ranks Test, with a stress on the nonparametric test. I find the pre-test and post-test differ statistically on shuttle run, SEMO agility and coordination, for basketball players after High-Low Aerobic. Its benefit of enhancing agility and coordination is therefore evident.
