Dancing the plural: towards an affective and collaborative experience of dance as a discipline Dancing the plural: towards an affective and collaborative experience of dance as a discipline

Abstract

The performing arts in general and dance in particular can be understood as dynamic territories, meeting spaces and co-creation of shared worlds. The objective of this article is to recognize the trajectories and emerging phenomena in the research processes carried out by three teachers from the Dance School of a university. The methodological approach of the investigation will be developed through autoenographies. The analysis of the investigation shows a perspective of the body, not only as a physiological unit capable of being trained to represent a certain choreography or narrative; but as corporeities, plural spaces where our experience of being in the world is embodied and updated, affecting and being affected by multiplicity of experiences and links. In conclusion, the research identifies dance as a discipline that can mobilize affects and corporations oriented to collaboration and democratic dialogue before the transmission of expert knowledge
