DANC 115 Insight Meditation



1 credit 22.5 hours
100 level undergraduate course

This course introduces The Four Foundations of Mindfulness (Satipathanna Sutta), an early Buddhism framework for meditation. Class sessions alternate between mindful sitting and walking practices that pay attention to the breath, settle into sensation, and stay open to the present moment. The non-interfering stillness of meditation unwinds blocks, clarifies intentions, and ultimately transforms hindrances into strengths. This unshakeable well-being becomes a powerful support for artists and all seekers.

This course may be completed 2 times for credit.
