Abstract
My STEP project will be a six-week education abroad program in Denmark beginning on May 26,2019 and ending on July 6, 2019. This program will provide an immersive experience for the group of dance majors, that auditioned early in the fall semester to be a part of this exclusive traveling ensemble, of which I am included. Throughout the six weeks, we will have the opportunity to travel between several different cities within Demark and explore historical and cultural sites in order to acquaint ourselves with the country’s way of life. More notably, we will be engaged with dance students and professionals in the country with which we will take and teach classes as well as perform dances that we will simultaneously be rehearsing.
While I have a great deal of experience with dance, having the opportunity to study it in the contexts of a foreign country will be a transformative experience. Being in a close-knit group of Ohio State students while meeting new artists from around the world will allow me to grow exponentially in terms of my dance skills and skills as a communicator and creator. While abroad, I will receive one credit hour for the summer course DANCE 5798 for my participation and engagement in all scheduled activities, classes, workshops, and performances.
