Miami Dance Futures

Dear Facebook friends, The Illustrated Dance Technique of José Limón which was first published in 1969 by Harper and Row and then a new addition by Princeton book company publishers in 1999 and since then it has been published in, Spanish, German, Japanese, and this Month I am so pleased to see the cover design for the Chinese version.

Dear Facebook friends who are Dance Teachers. I with Donna Krasnow will lead this three-day intensive course for dance teachers who wish to focus their teaching on the work of José Limón. Donna Krasnow is the co-author of Lewis’ latest book Daniel Lewis: A Life in Choreography and the Art of Dance. Participants will learn the movement concepts fundamental to the Limón philosophy: weight, fall and rebound, fall and recovery, succession, opposition, isolation, breath, and suspension. Additional elements include the use of rhythm and musicality specific to the Limón tradition: alignment, dynamics, use of space, and artistic expression. Lewis will share his years of experiences with José Limón with rare photos, films and personal stories about José’s teaching philosophy and Lewis’ approach to teaching it. Krasnow has developed a unique teaching curriculum for Limón technique designed for dancers from 8 years old to adults, recognized internationally. This is a once in a lifetime opportunity to experience Limón as taught by Lewis and the curriculum developed by Krasnow. Join us for an exciting three days with dance teachers from across North America!
