"I see dance being used as communication between body and soul, to express what is too deep to find for words." - Ruth St. Denis from Brainyquote.com
Two of the most prominent American modern dance pioneers are Ruth
St. Denis and Ted Shawn. Known for
their artistic, cultural movement, they collaborated in their dancing abilities
and choreographic techniques to establish the Denishawn School of Dancing and Related Arts Together, they created pieces considered to be “musical visualizations.”
