- Somatic approach - functional training and authentic Pilates Method as enhancers for availability and physical conditioning in dance composition classes, resorting to contemporary dance technique, for the 3rd year students of the Curso Profissional de Intérprete de Dança Contemporânea, at Escola Secundária Tomás CabreiraPublication . Carvalho, Eliana; Garcia, VítorABSTRACT - This internship report bases its investigation on data collected according to the rules and regulations of the Regulamento do Estágio, within the framework of the Master of Dance Education, administered by the Escola Superior de Dança (ESD) and the Instituto Politécnico de Lisboa (IPL), in Portugal. The internship was implemented at the Curso Profissional de Intérprete de Dança Contemporânea (CPIDC), Portugal, with the 3rd year students of the final year within the Portuguese secondary level academic education in dance at Escola Secundária Tomás Cabreira (ESTC). The objectives of the pedagogical intervention concerned the enhancement of physical and mental conditioning of the students, resorting to basic level Mat exercises from Authentic Pilates Method (APM) and Functional Training (FT) and to contemporary dance technique (CDtechn). The aim is also to promote physical longevity and limit injuries, by employing movement efficacy and efficiency within dance conditioning and dance classes. Another goal is to understand the concept of ‘availability’ and how to enhance it in relation to the integrative body and mind awareness of the dance student. Using an Artistic research methodology, the practice led research method to collect investigative data, it was achieved to progressively adapt and transform the teaching strategies and pedagogical methodologies to suit the needs of the research work, as well as the reality of the pre-professional dance finalists within a vocational dance structure. The data collection instruments provided both academic and human insights into the acceptance of the teaching practice and methodology. The final analysis and reflective thoughts based upon this practical teaching intervention at CPIDC demonstrated that the students of the 3rd year at ESTC, verbally and physically, presented a positive transformation of interdisciplinary thinking and doing within their performativity of the contemporary dance technique. We conclude that the interdisciplinary and integrative methodology is a relevant teaching strategy that reflects contemporary dance, influenced by technical and artistic propagations, and the process of adaptation and transformations within the nature of dance evolution itself.
