Abstract

This research investigates the intersections of embodied cognition, language, and culture in dance, drawing on theoretical frameworks from anthropology and performance studies. Through an Auto Ethnomethodological approach, using the case study of “1st APPEAL” self-creation, this study examines how dancers employ spoken word, sound, and movement to interpret and negotiate choreographic intentions. By applying embodied cognition as a lens, this research reveals the complex relationships between language, culture, and embodiment in dance. This research lies in its innovative application of embodied cognition to dance practices, highlighting the crucial role of embodied experiences in shaping dancers’ understanding and execution of choreographic intentions. This research will contribute to a deeper understanding of the intricate relationships between language, culture, and embodiment in dance, providing valuable insights for dance practitioners, choreographers, and educators. The findings also underscore the importance of considering embodied and cultural contexts in dance practices, ultimately enriching our understanding of choreographic tools and creative processes.

Abstract

This study explores the effectiveness of stylized performance training in cross-cultural drama education, focusing on how symbolic body language conveys emotions and character intent. Originating from traditional Chinese theatre, stylized training was adapted to help students from diverse cultural backgrounds achieve emotional resonance and cohesive character portrayal. Employing a participatory action research (PAR) design, the 16-week experiment involved performing arts students from six cultures, using iterative feedback and reflective practices to track changes in emotional expression and adaptation to symbolic movements. The training included three phases: basic training, emotional integration, and applied practice. Data was collected through classroom observations, interviews, feedback forms, and peer evaluations. Findings show that participants improved in non-verbal emotional expression, effectively conveying emotions across cultural barriers. Supported by Pavis’s “intercultural theatre” theory and Mead’s symbolic interactionism, the study highlights stylized performance’s potential to enhance cross-cultural emotional resonance in drama education.
