The focus of the discipline’s research is on dance presented onstage, but it cannot be studied without also capturing the interest in physical movement from a broader socio-political and media perspective.

Dance, body, society, culture and politics are studied as intertwined phenomena. Theories used range from an intersectional perspective, via phenomenology, historiography, cultural theory to more specific methods for movement and dance analysis.
