Anouk van Dijk — Countertechnique<br />
69<br />
Codarts / Rotterdam <strong>Dance</strong> Academy has asked Anouk van Dijk to be director<br />
of a test program from 2009 to 2012. During this time, she has, and<br />
will, continue to research how Countertechnique can be implemented into<br />
a four-year professional dance education curriculum. The second-year students<br />
served as the school’s first test group and had begun Countertechnique<br />
the year before; it was evident that they had experience. Teaching formats<br />
included Countertechnique workshops as an introduction to the principles<br />
(Practical Tools Workshop), regular Countertechnique classes, and partnering<br />
workshops. Apart from Anouk van Dijk, the teaching team consisted of<br />
Nina Wollny, Philipp Fricke, Jack Gallagher, and Birgit Gunzl, and was assisted<br />
by Peter Cseri. The aim of this residency is to develop a way in which<br />
Countertechnique can be integrated into a dance education syllabus as well<br />
as to further develop the technique’s teaching strategies.
