Day 1 Collaborative Performance Project.

This morning we started our lesson with a quick talk with Lucy and Emmeline about our final project and workshop with ReGina: how did it go, what did we like/ didn't like, what did we learn and etc.

Lucy:

Today we were going over work from ReGina's workshop and experimenting with this material to make it suitable for our main choreography for the show. But before that, we warmed up as we did with ReGina but we also did individual stretching. After we stretched we went through the choreography which we learned with ReGina on Monday so we can add it to our show. We didn't do much because some people weren't there on Monday so we had to teach them this routine.

Emmeline:

Emmeline's 2 hour class we started with a short warm up. After that we began to learn new technique exercises which we will do for the rest of this term. We have learned about 4 exercises where 2 of them were floor work.

Second hour was more creative because we showed to Emmeline the routine which we've learned in ReGina's class and also did in Lucy's class. Moreover we had to learn new material for Emmeline for our show choreography which was very exciting. New routine is very challenging for me because it's quite fast and technical but at the end of the day it seemed much easier for me than at the beginning.

In last 20 minutes we received a new task to create 8 counts of choreography paired with classmate linked to ReGina's style of dance. Firstly I was quite confused but when Emmeline put music on I just started to move and create. Eventually Damien and I had longest routine.
