January 8 Session Four


Today I didn’t watch the dance with the intent of description – I did video sequences so that we could better remember them in Greece.  But what I noticed is how Aakash’s playlist brought different tone and expressions of the sequence.

Playlist for today:

#1.  Red Sun – Anoushka Shanker

#2  Right Here Right Now – Fatboy Slim

#3  Killing Me Softly With His Song – Fugees (an aside: I love Lauryn Hill!)

#4 Deeper – The Soft Moon

#5 Change – Louisahhh!!!

 

Aakash talks about the energy that you need to sustain when you are on the sides, following the dance on stage, the moment before you begin to dance yourself.

Then we have the split in groups that asks how to put together three or four movements so that you can demonstrate and teach.

 

Groups:

Ana, Hoya, Julie, Mahrukh

Lubnah, Hetvi, Rodrigo, Johannnes

Tyeece, Gabi, Nandini, Sebastian

Yaozhong, Leslie, Anastasiia, Ivy, Waseem
