I have a ...project... for all of you who delight in discussing what makes
a good dance work.
I'm going to ask three questions without telling you why first.
It would be a marvelous thing if each of you on this list thought about
YOUR answers to these questions, and held those answers in your head,
before reading anyone else's replies, or sneaking a peek at the next email
to see why I'm asking.
Ready? First, think about all of your favorite dances, or your favorite
moments in certain dances. Just sift through them, mentally.
Now think of the dances, or moments, you DON't like. Now:
*
*
*
*
*
Can you list your three favorite transitions (sequence of two figures) in
terms of flow, how they connect?
What about your three least favorite?
What is the dance that embodies the words flowing, elegant, smooth the
most to you?
What is the dance that embodies them the least?
Got your answers? NOW look at the next email...
Cheers,
Amy
