The freestyle dance class of Eugene Loring

Article Abstract:

Eugene Loring founded the American School of Dance in Los Angeles in 1947 and introduced a hybrid, exploratory dance movement technique called freestyle. Loring's dance training syllabus includes techniques which are an innovative attempt to integrate the essences of ballet, modern, jazz and other ethnic forms of dance-a search to discover the common elements among various dance forms and develop a shared language among the disparate cultural traditions.
