The society in in which we live today, of the hyper consumption and highly mediatized, continues having an impact on the conceptions that people have in relation to the body. The body has become one more sign-object that circulates in the contemporary society; a society that lives under excessive regimes of work, production and self-demand, which have been framed in an apparent “freedom“, but which have finally managed to make us lose contemplative knowledge and the importance of ourselves. As an artist in training who works from the body in a professional dance career, I have witnessed how artistic disciplines are not exempt from these changes in the society. The present work describes the different conceptions about the body that have been built from the history of dance, where at the beginning it was ruled by doctrines that determined how and who a dancing body should be; it is not until shortly before the end of the Second World War that a gap arises in front of this thought of apollonian character. From this moment, new forms of dance expression are manifested, which accept and recognize other bodies capable of dancing; bodies that build their movement from their subjectivities and individuality, and are respected. As a reflection, this work seeks to know the place that these conceptions have today in the formation process and artistic work of the professional dancer.
