Premodule Dance with Michael Bronczkowski

The Master's program in Dance / Movement Therapy at the School of Therapeutic Sciences offers a preliminary module in dance, during which students coming to the university will use creative movement and dance-based techniques to explore self-expression in movement, expand the range of their movements, and enhance their dance and movement skills. The dance preparatory module is led by Michael Bronczkowski (dancer and prospective dance therapist). The program is intended for people who wish to prepare themselves specifically for work with the body and dance at the beginning of the semester. It also offers the possibility of interdisciplinary networking across the study cohorts.
A daily warm-up ritual opens the session. Different elements and parameters of movement are experienced through the perspective of natural developmental processes of human beings (according to Bartenieff). At the end of the day, these are transferred into dynamic dances.
In addition, students of the Dance and Movement Therapy program organize a meeting at the faculty in the dance therapy room to discuss practical tips for the program start, impressions from the clinical internship and current topics.
