Today we take a moment to highlight another great program in higher education, Salve Regina University.  We were lucky enough to speak with Department Chair and Dance Program Coordinator, Lindsay Guarino, about this unique program.  Lindsay also has had a hand in changing the program and has been involved in some incredible projects.  Located in Rhode Island, this program has specialty focuses as well as flexibility.    We hope you enjoy our chat today with Lindsay Guarino.Program overview:At Salve Regina University, the bachelor's degree in dance offers a transformative education through the study of dance in a liberal arts environment.  Through the curriculum, students engage in critical dialogue, physical practice and creative production as they study dance history, theory, technique, performance, composition and pedagogy.  Students develop their artistic voices across a range of styles, including jazz, contemporary, tap, hip hop and ballet.  The curriculum emphasizes jazz studies with courses designed to honor, investigate and practice jazz as a historically Black American art form best understood through awareness of one's own identity and culture.  Community is at the heart of Salve Regina's dance program with an environment that encourages and supports individuality, personal creativity, dynamic exchanges of energy, risk-taking and resilience - all enduring values within the jazz aesthetic.About Lindsay:Lindsay Guarino is a jazz dance artist, educator and scholar.  As associate professor and department chair of Music, Theatre and Dance at Salve Regina University in Newport, RI she has grown the dance program from a minor to a B.A. focused in jazz and justice.  As an educator and a leader, Lindsay prioritizes community at the heart of her practice and seeks to cultivate spaces where individuality is celebrated and recognized as vital to personal and collective growth.  Lindsay's commitment to revealing and preserving jazz dance in connection to its roots led her to co-edit Jazz Dance: A History of the Roots and Branches (University Press of Florida, 2014), and the award winning text Rooted Jazz Dance: Africanist Aesthetics and Equity in the Twenty-First Century (UPF, 2022).  Through the National Dance Education Organization, Lindsay developed and planned two special topics jazz dance conferences (2016 & 2019) and developed and taught Jazz Dance Theory and Practice for their Online Professional Development Institute.  She appears in and consulted on the documentary Uprooted: The Journey of Jazz Dance (2020), available on HBO Max.Thank you for listening Jam Fam!

Faz tempo que Tati e Henrique vêm manifestando opiniões por aqui (e fora daqui também). Mas dessa vez, nossos anfitriões decidiram trazer um pouco mais de suporte para suas ideias. E para isso, recrutaram Lindsay Guarino e um texto seu contido no livro "Jazz Dance: A History of the Roots and Branches" para tratarem de alguns aspectos relacionados ao mundo das escolas de dança e ao universo das convenções e competições. Um assunto complexo e importante em um episódio que é um misto de Pé na Orelha e Clube do Livro… Sensacional! | @penaorelha | @henriquehb | @tatisanchis | @casadadancatatisanchis | Site Casa da Dança | Casa da Dança - Vila Madalena | Casa da Dança - Perdizes | Casa da Dança - Higienópolis | Glot Dojo | Inacreditável Esporte Clube | Maria Cristina Lopes @psicologiadadanca | John Legend - By Your Side | Chris Dave And The Drumhedz | Jazz Dance: A History of the Roots and Branches (Lindsay Guarino (Editor), Wendy Oliver) | INTRODUÇÃO: 00:00 | PAPO DE HOJE: 10:20 | VAI LÁ VÊ: 01:43:25 |

"Black love looks like family, in all its many guises. Ancestral, by blood, found family. It looks like embodied culture…. and discovered culture. Sometimes we find and find out about lineage later than expected or desired. It doesn't make it any less real or desired. Black love FEELS like comfort. It's in our food, our style, our language. It looks like self love, self acceptance, self possession. It looks like bonds not bondage." Educator and choreographer Melanie George is Dani Tirrell's guest on #IntimateConversations this week. The two talk about hair, Jazz and loving your 40s, and Dani asks Dani's favorite question, "What is your Joy?"

Contested and complicated histories create the best books. This is true for many volumes and is certainly so for Jazz Dance: A History of the Roots and Branches (University Press of Florida, 2014), a recent work edited by Wendy Oliver and Lindsay Guarino. Picking up where Marshall and Jean Stearns left off over two decades ago, Oliver and Guarino bring to the field a book that culls together some of the best contemporary scholarship on the history, progenitors, and cultural forces that shape the uniquely American art form known as jazz dance. Created in part as a resource for students, the book is unique in its accessibility, diversity of authorship and willingness to engage the complicated racial and social history of jazz dance. Wendy Oliver has been teaching and choreographing at Providence College since 1985, and is the director of the PC Dance Company. Dr. Oliver is Chair of the Department of Theatre, Dance and Film, and also runs the Children’s Dance program on the Providence College campus. An Active dancer and choreographer, Lindsay Guarino is Assistant professor of Music Theatre and Dance at Salve Regina University and artistic director of Extensions Dance Company.
