Abstract

This article examines the aesthetic stance choreographic educators should take when teaching students how to choreograph and engage in dance work. In the field of philosophical aesthetics, there has always been a heated debate about the importance of aesthetic and moral values in evaluating art. Four camps are involved in this debate. This article investigates the negative and positive implications of the philosophical and choreographic educational implications of three camps: aestheticism, moderate autonomy, and ethicism. However, since educators must consider the compatibility of aesthetics and ethics, the interplay of aesthetic and ethical values held by moderate moralism is an appropriate position for dance educators to take when coaching students.
