On choreography: \"Choreography is a negotiation with the patterns your body is thinking\"<\/p>\n
On rules: \"Try breaking the rules on a need to break the rules basis\"<\/p>\n
A Choreographer\u2019s Handbook invites the reader to investigate how and why to make a dance performance. In an inspiring and unusually empowering sequence of stories, ideas and paradoxes, internationally renowned dancer, choreographer and teacher Jonathan Burrows explains how it\u2019s possible to navigate a course through this complex process. It is a stunning reflection on a personal practice and professional journey, and draws upon five years\u2019 of workshop discussions, led by Burrows. Burrows\u2019 open and honest prose gives the reader access to a range of exercises, meditations, principles and ideas on choreography that allow artists and dance-makers to find their own aesthetic process.<\/p>\n
Jonathan Burrows has toured and worked internationally as a dancer and choreographer. In 2002 he was commended by the Foundation for Contemporary Performance Arts in New York for his contribution to contemporary dance, and in 2004 he received a New York Dance and Performance 'Bessie' for his work 'Both Sitting Duet'. He has made commissioned work for many companies, including William Forsythe's Ballett Frankfurt, Sylvie Guillem and The Royal Ballet.
