Conexões em movimento: o ensino da técnica do ballet a partir dos princípios do método Gyrokinesis

The goal of this thesis is to develop a theoretical and practical study focusing in the connections between the exercises of the ballet and the principals of the GYROKINESIS® method. The authors approached as theoretical background for the ballet are Bertoni (1992), Caminada & Aragão (2006), Minden (2005) and Vaganova (1969); for the GYROKINESIS® method are Campbell & Milles (2006) and Renha (2010); for body awareness is Vianna (2005); and for Somatic Education are Feldenkrais (1977), Fortin (1998 and 1999), Hanna (1986) and Strazzacappa (2009 and 2012). The methodological approach used in this study and was applied to members of the extension project Connections: the fundamentals of Ballet and the principles of the method GYROKINESIS®. The participants of this study were students and former students of the dance program of the technical and teaching training degrees at the Escola de Teatro e Dança – ETDUFPA. The class met twice a week for 90 minutes. Photos, videos, testimony and reports of the participants documented the learning process for the research. Through the analysis of these materials, it was evident the connections experienced on the group’s development, what allows to clearly perceive the possibility of teaching the ballet technique in a more integrated fashion connected with the potential and limits of each student, opposing the rigid, exhausting and old school teaching. ; Este trabalho tem como objetivo desenvolver um estudo teórico-prático para estabelecer conexões entre os exercícios do ballet e os princípios do método GYROKINESIS®.
