Abstract
Esta investigación está constituida por la sistematización de la experiencia de un taller de
danza, en el cual se combinaron herramientas metodológicas provenientes de la danza
contemporánea y de la educación somática con un género urbano derivado del hiphop: el sexy
style.
Como ocurre con muchos géneros urbanos de danza presentes en las industrias culturales
de la música, el sexy style puede ser visto como un género que reproduce una mirada
cosificadora de la mujer y que, en consecuencia, atentaría contra la dignidad de esta. Este
prejuicio se debe, entre otros, a que este estilo se desarrolla sobre la base de pasos que exaltan
una sensualidad femenina. En contraposición a esta mirada, la presente tesis busca describir y
fundamentar cómo, con ciertas mediaciones, este estilo de danza puede contribuir a que las
mujeres que lo practican generen lazos de solidaridad entre ellas, aborden sus emociones y se
empoderen.
La investigación ha sido realizada a través de entrevistas a las talleristas, así
como a colegas y docentes de danza contemporánea, somática y urbana. De igual
manera, estas entrevistas han sido contrastadas con material bibliográfico y, por
último, con la reflexión de la propia investigadora, quien además asume el rol de
docente del taller. Además, la experiencia que aquí se sistematiza ha sido registrada
a través de fotografías que se comparten a lo largo del documento.
This research is focused on the systematization of a dance workshop experience. This workshop combined tools and methodologies from contemporary dance and somatic education with an urban dance style that derives from hip hop and is known as “sexy style”. As it occurs with many urban dance styles in the music industry, “sexy style” can be seen as a dance style that reproduces the objectification of women, which harms their dignity. Among other reasons, this prejudice arises from the type of dance moves, which emphasize women’s sensuality. In contrast to this opinion, this thesis seeks to explain and argue how this dance style can help women be supportive to each other, get in touch with their feelings and feel empowered. This research has been conducted based on interviews with women who have taken these dance classes, colleagues and teachers of contemporary dance, urban dance and somatics. Said interviews have been corroborated using a bibliographical review and considering the author’s own reflection, as she plays the role of both researcher and teacher of the aforementioned dance workshop. In addition, photographs were taken throughout the workshop and inserted into this text
