dc.description.abstract | This project is about dance. I have research and participated in the culture of commercial, street, and theatrical styles for most of my college years. I thought it would only be fitting to do an autoethnography where I focus on the spaces I have been a part of, the people I have met and been inspired by, and the cathartic, spiritual experiences that dancing has brought me. I use cultural dance theory perspectives from Judith Hanna and feminist theory from Judith Butler to analyze my personal experiences, while also using these texts to analyze pop culture and its influence. I also have compiled a video project of my training process in public and private spheres, giving you a little taste of what life is like when your life is expressed through the wonderful and powerful art of dancing.
