Para o estudante do ensino vocacional de dança, o corpo em movimento assume especial importância na construção da sua identidade. Esta investigação procura compreender as implicações da educação somática na construção dinâmica da imagem corporal do estudante de dança, no que respeita à vivência, perceção e apreciação do seu próprio movimento.
O estudo foi desenvolvido no contexto do ensino vocacional, com 10 estudantes de licenciatura da Escola Superior de Dança do Instituto Politécnico de Lisboa, entre Outubro de 2017 e Fevereiro de 2018, com o propósito de observar, analisar e compreender o processo vivenciado num curso de movimento somático.
De modo a proporcionar aos participantes a vivência de atividades no campo da educação somática, bem como a reflexão acerca de si próprios e dos processos envolvidos nas suas experiências de movimento em diferentes momentos, foi adotado um design metodológico de natureza qualitativa com recurso a múltiplos métodos de recolha de dados, que incluiu a implementação de um curso de movimento somático composto por 20 sessões, entrevistas semiestruturadas em profundidade, entrevistas de explicitação (Vermersch, 2003), diários de bordo e discussões de grupo.
A análise temática dos dados envolveu a comparação e a verificação cruzada das diferentes fontes de dados, a partir da qual se desenvolveu a codificação, e posteriormente o agrupamento de temas. Os três temas emergentes foram nomeados de acordo com as expressões dos participantes: o corpo no espaço e o espaço no corpo; o meu corpo como um todo; e pensar com o corpo. Um aspeto central e comum aos três temas é o papel essencial da consciência sensorial na articulação das diferentes estruturas da imagem corporal. Os resultados incluem alterações na experiência de si próprio em movimento, que se traduzem numa perceção mais nítida e diferenciada do corpo, uma maior integração de todo o corpo no movimento, e numa maior sensibilidade na relação do corpo com o espaço. Outros resultados encontrados foram o desenvolvimento de qualidades como a criatividade, a autorregulação e a autoconfiança.
Concluímos que, no contexto do nosso estudo, a educação somática contribuiu para os participantes adquirirem uma perceção mais ampliada e um maior conhecimento de si próprios em movimento, e descobrirem novas formas de expressarem a sua identidade. Ao criar as condições para os participantes desenvolverem uma maior conexão com o seu bodyself, o processo de educação somática favoreceu a conciliação entre as dimensões experienciais, performativas, e representativas do corpo.
For vocational dance students, the body in motion is especially important in shaping their identity. This research aims to understand the implications of somatic education in the dynamic construction of the dance student’s body image, concerning the experience, perception, and appreciation of their own movement. The study was developed in a vocational education context, with 10 undergraduate students from Escola Superior de Dança of Instituto Politécnico de Lisboa, from October 2017 to February 2018, with the purpose to observe, analyze, and understand the process experienced during a somatic movement course. A qualitative methodological design with multiple data collection approach methods, including the implementation of a 20 session’s somatic movement course, in-depth semi-structured interviews, explicitation interviews (Vermersch, 2003), participant journals and group discussions, was adopted to provide the participants the experience of activities in somatic education, as well as to promote self-reflection about the processes involved in their movement experiences at different moments. The thematic data analysis included the comparison and cross-validation of different sources, from which the coding was developed, and generated three emerging themes selected according to the participant’s words: the body in space and the space in the body; my body as a whole; and thinking with the body. A central and transversal aspect to all three themes is the essential role of sensory awareness in the articulation of the different body image structures. Results include changes in one’s self-experience while in movement, such as a sharper and more differentiated perception of the body, more integration of the whole body in movement, and greater sensitivity in the body-space relations. Other results include the development of qualities like creativity, autoregulation, and self-confidence. We concluded that, in this study context, somatic education allowed students to acquire a more extended perception and knowledge about themselves in movement and to discover new ways of expressing their own identity. By creating an environment that allowed students to develop an extended connection with their body-self, the somatic education process favored the conciliation between the body’s experiential, performative, and representative dimensions.
