Modern Dance Family Tree 5lpd

Modern Dance Family Tree Based on the notes we took in class, create a family tree that shows how each choreographer is connected. Some got married, some formed business partnerships, and some were teachers or students. For the choreographers and dancers you have (everyone in our notes), you must write one brief phrase describing them. For example, we talked about Martha Graham, so you could write “invented the concept of contract and release.” Feel free to include any other shapes or written notes about how these choreographers/dancers are connected. In addition to the choreographers we discussed in class, you will also need to include the following dancers/choreographers:              
