Nathan Balser, Associate Department Chair and associate professor of dance, graced the cover shot of a BYU Photo Essay which was featured on the front page of byu.edu from Monday, March 30, 2020, through Wednesday, April 1, 2020.
The photo essay highlights various professors across campus and how they’re adapting to teaching remotely in their disciplines. Instructors and students are making the most of the unprecedented circumstances of the COVID-19 quarantine directive and doing their best to stay connected to their teachers and one another.
“Dance is so much about space,” Balser said. “Without our normal spaces to move in, we can feel so disconnected and discombobulated. But there is also a great opportunity, now, to explore our bodies, minds and souls in new ways, too.”
“The students and faculty have really inspired me to consider new methods and new ideas,” Balser continued. “I think when we get on the other side of this COVID-19 craziness, we might find that things have changed in many ways for the better. I’m hoping so.”
