This essay examines the reflection of contemporary technique class –through professional training for dancers in Québec – in a context of heterogeneity of choreographic practices. The authors have specifically examined the accounts of four artist-teachers: Kelly Keenan, Manon Levac, Sandrine Vachon and Jamie Wright. The analysis highlights their teaching philosophies and pedagogical choices that lead them into a highly structured and sensitive approach to the moving body and a constantly renewed relationship with their students.
