Pretendo mostrar com este livro que o conhecimento das teorias de aprendizagem interfere positivamente no ensino da dança. Para tal, investiguei as teorias construtivistas de Jean Piaget, L. Vigotsky e Henri Wallon como suporte do entendimento de conceitos utilizados por David Ausubel em sua teoria da aprendizagem significativa, destaque teorico deste meu trabalho. Alem de apresentar a teoria de Ausubel, procurei relaciona-la com as anteriores e com o ensino da dança na escola publica, bem como com os pensamentos transdisciplinares de Edgar Morim e com alguns conceitos desenvolvidos por Michel Maffesoli. Essa relaço acontece a partir da historia da implantaço do primeiro curso Tecnico em Dança com Matriz curricular integrada do Brasil, na rede Faetec de ensino, no Rio de Janeiro. O curso foi criado em 2010, começando as atividades em 2011 e decorreu de uma experiencia muito frutifera na dança educaço carioca: a Cia de Atores Bailarinos Adolpho Bloch, que em 2019 completa 20 anos de existencia! Dessa forma, este livro torna-se relevante para estudantes de Dança, Artes, Educaço, Educaço Fisica, e professores em geral, interessados em pensar que, independentemente do subsidio tecnico utilizado, cabera ao professor de Dança um oficio de arteso de significados e multiplicador de subjetividades para a realizaço de um trabalho realmente significativo.

Before Mark Morris became "the most successful and influential choreographer alive" (The New York Times), he was a six year-old in Seattle cramming his feet into Tupperware glasses so that he could practice walking on pointe. Moving to New York at nineteen, he arrived to one of the great booms of dance in America. . Morris was flat broke but found a group of likeminded artists that danced together, travelled together, slept together. This collective, led by Morriss fiercely original vision, became the famed Mark Morris Dance Group.Suddenly, Morris was making a fast ascent. Celebrated by The New Yorkers critic as one of the great young talents, an androgynous beauty in the vein of Michelangelos David, he and his company had arrived. Collaborations with the likes of Mikhail Baryshnikov, Yo-Yo Ma, Lou Harrison, and Howard Hodgkin followed. And so did controversy: from the circus of his tenure at La Monnaie in Belgium to his work on the biggest flop in Broadway history. But through the Reagan-Bush era, the worst of the AIDS epidemic, through rehearsal squabbles and backstage intrigues, Morris emerged as one of the great visionaries of modern dance, a force of nature with a dedication to beauty and a love of the body, an artist as joyful as he is provocative.Out Loud is the bighearted and outspoken story of a man as formidable on the page as he is on the boards. With unusual candor and disarming wit, Morriss memoir captures the life of a performer who broke the mold, a brilliant misfit who found his home in the collective and liberating world of music and dance.
