In this workshop the teacher introduced the Gaga technique, so we discussed about its features:

In this workshop we have learnt the difference between and impact (start a movement explosively and fade into a light one) and impulse (start a movement lightly and introducing very quickly a strong one)

In this workshop we learned about successive and simultaneous movements:

Successive - Following movements consecutively.
It creates a sense of fluidity.
Simultaneous - Creates a sharp sensation.

In this board we can see five fundamental characteristics:

This is a planning of the section orders of our material.
We wrote key themes of what we want to transmit to the audience, to be able to find a solid message of our piece.

Today, we have started the lesson with the same warm up as last week but incorporating travelling.
There was a running part in this travelling, which created a sense of contrast between impulse and impact. This helped me for our main production, because it refers to the controversial theme of Uprising.
Subsequently, we have done another travelling exercise which required a constant contact with the floor. Rolls were the main way to travel through the space. This exercise helped me as a performer to explore my body in conjunction with the floor, finding new postures and discovering new movements. I have improved in terms of expanding my body during this exercise, keeping in mind the Gaga Technique.
In addition, it was really useful for my role in our main production, to tremendously expand my movements, creating a more professional performance.
Later, we have done the same exercise including levels, which made me think of the lack of aggressiveness when we do our duet contact "fight", since most of us were doing in it in an upper level.
So, the solution was to descend the confrontational movement, reflects that anger we were looking for.
When we have finished we recapped the repertoire refining every section, to perform in excellence.
When we have finished we were asked to add another section (the final one) which was a compilation of different previous parts and little new segments produced by our creativity. The intention of this new part of Uprising was to finalize our piece with a solid end.

We also create tension by the combination of music and body percussion.

Sense of community, group bounces, holding the retiere.

Tension: Strengthen tension, mysterious tension which shows a sense of anger.

The skills and technique we have need for the retiere were:

Balance.

Timing.

The use of contrast creates a confrontation between individuality and community

To communicate the idea of confrontation we used contact during our repertoire.

The use of daily gestures with our ambiguous abstract movements created by our characterization, produces a mundane and emotive environment to the audience.

The episode structure of the piece is based in a circular narrative.

During this day, everyone was panicking, so Stephen decided to make us lay on the floor to proceed with a relaxation exercise which consisted in:
Closing our eyes and breathing while we disconnect from the outsie world.

Doing this exercise helped me massively because it made my body and mind relaxed, which I really needed in that moment.

In addition, it also made me think about my breathing when I was performing Romeo and Juliet, I have noticed that I delivered better my lines than on the matinee.
