Isadora Duncan was an american dancer borned in May 27th,1877. Her life was very intense and complicated since she was a little girl. She's known for her dance inspired in the waves.
Isadora was the first dancer in investigate the expression of the movement, searching a natural dance that coming from the soul and escapes from the artificial and virtuous representation, rejecting this way the academic dance.She passed hours and hours experimenting with her body until find a true movement. Inspired from the observation of the greek figures in the museum, she broke with the clothes used in the classical ballet and danced without shoes and wearing tunics that gives to her the free that she wanted. Her dance was very related with the music and the emotions.
Her movements and ideology could be consider the base of the modern dance and the improvisation. Isadora with her sister found a school where teaching this way to understand the dance. In that place they don't impose a specific technique.
I really admire her for the bravery that she has for confront the life and her permanent search in the dance.
