DanceUSF Presents the Fall Dance Concert

Find yourself gliding across the stage, being lifted through the air and landing with perfect grace. This will be an evening of fast paced movement and agile choreography by our talented DanceUSF Faculty and guest artist Erik Wagner.

Five female dancers. Four in the back all face backwards, the one in the front is bent forward at her waist.

Two female dancers dressed in all black extend their arms outwards and bend their knees slightly, leaning to their sides.

A Black male dancer holds a female dancer in his arms. He leans forward, holding her as she extends her arms gracefully backwards toward the floor and extends one leg straight upwards.

DanceUSF Professors Jeanne Travers and Bliss Kohlmyer will be taking their pieces from this concert and traveling with DanceUSF students to Beijing, China to participate in the International Creative Dance Seminar at Beijing Normal University.

The USF / China Exchange Program is a unique opportunity for dancers to have an artistic, cultural and educational experience in China. The International Creative Dance Seminar offers students the chance to interact with faculty and students from many different countries that come together to share the common language of dance. Through diverse classes such as Chinese Traditional Folk Dance, Tibetan Dance, Contemporary Modern Dance, Dance Improvisation and World Dance students will gain a rich knowledge about the artistry of different world cultures.

GUEST ARTIST

Erik Wagner is a native of Clearwater Beach, and is thrilled to be home, and making work at the 51在线. His history performing with the San Francisco Ballet, B茅jart Ballet Lausanne, Ballet X, and the Stadttheater Bern Ballet lay an eclectic foundation upon which his practice in teaching and choreography is built. In June 2019, Dance Teacher Magazine published his views on teaching adagio, and in 2018 Dance Magazine live-streamed his ballet class via Facebook. He recently assisted staging and choreography for the Fischerspooner concert in San Francisco, where his dances have been featured in the West Wave Dance Festival, Kunst-Stoff Festival, Joe Goode Feedback, The Garage, The News: Fresh Queer Performance, and the Lines Ballet Training Program. From 2013-2015, Erik served as a Guest Lecturer of Dance at Stanford University.
