Workshop 24
From today's lesson we worked on how to combine our skills of strength, co-ordination and flexibility so I could move throughout the flow with ease and efficiency when weight exchanging and taking a moment to find my balance. In order to progress, I must understand he theory behind the practical asit  helps a dancer to fully understand. When shifting weight and travelling from the back on both sides it is vital that I apply my kinaesphere to challenging myself realistically.

Workshop 22
I am now able to know that flexibility and strength work together to benefit me so I must work or building both to be at the same level. Due to having a natural flexibility, rather then 'improving' my flexibility I will learn how to use my given flexibility as it can only ever improve by 10%max. I must also know when travelling across the room doing monkey jumps on each side how to know when to relax and when to engage my body.

Workshop 23
Due to reflecting today, I must always ensure I have full control over my body and using my breath can develop and enhance a movement. Due to now knowing the correct counts in our phrase I can now turn my counting into breath whilst still extending. When cutting the space in certain aspects of the rep I must demonstrate clearly if I am doing a sharp dynamic as  variety of other dynamics can change the intention.

Workshop 21
From today's lesson, a strength of mine was how I showed  clear movement through our movement phrase. However, in further lesson I will work on my direction on the movement and how I can finish my lines whether it is a sharp dynamic or sustained dynamic to be a better version of myself as a dancer. I must never hold back when I am dancing and dance with joy to get the correct I tension shown in the movements.

Workshop 20
From today's lesson, we broke down each movement and section of our  rep so we could understand the placement, where our weight had to be, our dynamic, level and ways in which I'd achieve a better flow. After doing this we then added the acccompliment as part of he structure and benefit us to perform with flair.

Workshop 19
From working on our heroes routine counting our the accomplice the is important to demonstrate musicality. By doing this a strength of mine I'd to now be able to use a variety of time signifiers and practice moving to the counts. Furthermore, a target I will consistently approve on Is to be spacially aware and always rehearse the dynamic of the movement, as well as specials and actions.

Workshop 20
Today's we looked at our technique through our rep. A strength of ,Jane was how I showed my dynamics and use of agility through leg entensions and having a catch and fall recovery. When doing the phrase  to the script 'superhero' I was aware that I had to show the quality of the performance through the movement as I developed my clarity and give maximum energy spread across the dance so I was able to dance over a longer period of time. A weakness of mine within this lesson was my rhythmic awareness. For further developing this dance I will count my music and be aware of the timing so I am confident and accurate with my movement.

Workshop 18
In today's lesson I focused on how to use my energy and know how to flow through the movement with suspense as I can stay low when travelling across the floor whilst using my core and kinaesphere. When doing this I was suddenly able to change the levels and dynamics to give a different intention of the phrase.

# data[].attributes.body
Workshop 17
From reflecting, today I can understand that when using my kinaesphere and filling in the space I must move either towards or away from my centre. From actively reflecting as an indivual and from peer I must always be helpful and independent when thinking about the steps and movement for each phrase whether it's my use of kinaesphere in floor work, correct foot placement in jumps or efficient breath and arms in arm swings.

Workshop 16
Through demonstration my contemporary technique and improving my physical and interpretation skills I've been able to show examples of physical phrases, technical corrections through my lessons when taking on board my feedback from Craig and peers and been able to target set realistically. I've been able to develop my skills within this lesson through my use of rhythm, actions, timing and spacials through all physical phrases.

Workshop 15
The criteria within our lessons are of a high professional standard.
1. Disipline
- Hair must be tied up out of face
-Bodies must be warmed up to avoid injury and get blood flowing through the muscle
-You must always be on time for all lectures entering 15minutes before the lesson starts
-Black uniform with no labels is always required.

2. How efficient am I in class?
I am able to show my physical skills through my co-ordination and stamina.

3. I always perform to my fullest and present my flair.

4. Through developing in contemporary I am now able to use my breath and focus efficiently and show my suspension in my floor work.

5. I always give evidence of my practical lessons through my Padlet journal which provides my strengths, weaknesses and targets for developing.

Workshop 14
A weakness I will always improve to work on within dance is my arm strength. From finding this out in our lesson today I will make sure I'm holding my centre and engaging my core when doing press up. Another target I will work on throughout my lessons is my stamina and technique. Through showing development I am able to demonstrate how I can shift my weight efficiently through monkey jumps and motif develop our phrases through turning, twisting and rolling.

# data[].attributes.body
Workshop 12
When doing arm swings exercise and floor work I must always engage my core and be strong, lean and alert so that my focus stays on the movement. Today's lesson helped me tounderstand  where the suspense and attack is within the floor work as we broke down each movement to correct placement, weight and our kinaesthetic awareness.

# data[].attributes.body
Workshop 11
From today's lesson, it is highly vital that I reflect on how I must improve on my weaknesses which are physical and mental so I am able to push through and carry on developing these as strengths. Through doing this I must work on using my flexibility and strengthaccurately  and to its fullest potential so I can perform with ease and efficiency.

# data[].attributes.body
Workshop 10
Good practice from today's lesson was doing the exercise on both sides of the body in our arms swings and floor work exercises as part of the second side so I could become more familiar to the movement and be influenced how to flow natural into the next movement with my use of breath and intentional focus on certain body parts.

# data[].attributes.body
Workshop 9
From my contemporary lesson of this week I have learnt that using my breath can develop and enhance a movement so I am using my kinaesphere to its furthest potential. Similarly, when changing the dynamic of a movement it can change the intention behind it.

# data[].attributes.body
Workshop 8
From reflecting in today's lesson, it is vital that I have the momentum and power to be able to travel across the room with correct foot placement constantly coming back to parallel. My feet must be pointed with my legs turned out in order to plies in 1st, 2nd and parallel efficiently. To further develop, I will continue to work on my leg strength so I am able to show the different levels of height when demonstrating clearly a grounded, middle and high jump.

# data[].attributes.body
Workshop 7
Within today's lesson, I mainly focused on how efficiently I use my breath through the different movements. An example To consider is the floor swings. When doing this exercise it is vital that I use my breath when using interior and exterior movements and when my legs are extending and coming back to parallel

# data[].attributes.body
Workshop 6

In today's lecture, I am able to reflect that when doing floor work  there are many movements such as happy cat, monkey jumps and leg swings  Which helped me to move in and out of the floor whilst shifting my weight. A strength of mine in this lesson was how I managed to use my kinaesthetic awareness so that the locomotion of the movement can become more natural. To further develop this phrase, I will next rather perform with more emphasis on certain parts of the body through my physical focus whilst performing with flair.

Workshop 5

During this lesson, I was able to apply my corrects from the lesson before which was using the correct head placement to moving in different directions without facing the direction I am moving to. By doing this Craig helped us to visualise having an eye on each part of your head. Moreover, by doing this when going through the floor sequence I was able to more more efficient throughout the sequence when performing the variety of movements. Throughout my contemporary lessons I struggled when doing corner work by travelling. To hopefully improve on this I will practice in lessons and to book the studio to practice using the space more rather then travelling a sequence on a spot.

workshop 4

From this contemporary lesson, I was able to recognise that the right emotion needed to be emphasised should always be put correctly to give the direct feeling accurately within a dance piece.  Furthermore, I had a more understanding that it is essential when given a piece of material the specific movements in the choreography must flow together and not feel like a start-stop movement  in order of the material to be clear and follow smoothly.

Within this contemporary lesson, I specifically asked a question, "would you be able to do the sequence with us?". From asking this I now understand the key point is not to remember the dance but to be able to work on it yourself and recognise that depend on the teacher. Many ways on supporting this is by practicing over and over and making sure to never mark choreograph and too always give maximum effort even when running through as you then familiar with the movements.

workshop 3

At the start of the lesson, I recognised that movement comes from different parts on your body whether it's your circling your foot or moving your arms up and down. By proving this in the lesson I used different body parts, shapes and levels to try and write my name. We also used a crayon technique where different parts of our body were used as a stimulus. By doing this I was able to change direction, use the space and travel through the air or on the floor. Throughly the class i used the best of my ability to make sure I applied this technique. From also doing this task I was able to understand when travelling you should use the whole space provided so you are able to practice more and be able to move more effectively.

A weakness I plan to work on is to be able to shift all my weight onto one leg after doing a pirouette as it's makes the sequence more effective and effortless.

Workshop 2

In today's class, i learnt that when dancing it's is vital that you have strong pelvic floor muscles as it is very beneficially. In order to strengthen these muscles I learnt that you squeeze your muscles 10-15 times in a row. Throughout all my lessons I aim to strengthen my pelvic floor by doing this in lesson times and in my Spare time as it is very helpful to make me a better dancer as a whole. On the other hand, i am also aware that it is vital to be spatially aware whether on my feet or on the floor. An example of this from the lesson was when we was doing the floor sequence we start on our backs and changing legs to make a circled movement on the opposite direction so it comes to our arms. When doing this sequence I aim to strengthen my arms so when I kick my legs in the air and swap them I am stable and strong to hold I presentable leg lift.

Workshop 1

From my first lesson of contemporary, I was very unexpected on how I would be dancing with a different dance teacher and people in the class. When warming up I focused on my breathing correctly when raising my heart rate in order to keep my body warm. When starting the floor sequence the class as a whole was shown the piece from the right side. Due to this I able to pick up the choreography quickly yet I wanted to make sure all my moves were correct. By doing this I went through the choreography flat out and checked with a partner whilst others were performing. However, when we was told to do the choreography from the left hand side I found it very confusing as I was not able to run this through with my teacher. By performing this I can now ensure to work through the piece from both sides with a partner and practice the moves in our own time. I also learnt that I shouldn't never rely on the teacher, the person in front of me or running through it in my head as I should be familiar with the choreography.
