| Annotation | In this study, the medium of dance was used to explore intergenerational relationships and interactions between profoundly deaf young children and profoundly deaf older adults. The researcher examined the extent to which individuals of one age group act as grandparents or grandchildren for those of another age group; and the dance elements of warm-ups, partnering, touch and line versus circle. The study investigated whether dance can act as a catalyst for social interaction between these two age groups. |
