The connections between mathematics and dance are more surprising than we might think, and may lead to charming kinesthetic and mathematical puzzles. Elements common to both include shape and geometry, pattern and symmetry, design and structure, and perhaps most importantly, a reverence for elegant solutions. We will playfully explore several such puzzles that are geometric, combinatoric, and topological in nature. Embodying these puzzles can fuel new perspectives on problem-solving, and lead to examining how the artistic and analytical minds enliven each other.
