In this lesson we will explore different elements of movement using improvisation. ]]> 2016-11-13 07:11:17 UTC https://padlet.com/ewilliams241/bfv7qr9icuxk/wish/137170753 ewilliams241 https://padlet.com/ewilliams241/bfv7qr9icuxk/wish/137171840 Watch this video of Kiana del Valle's solo study of improvisation. What ideas do you think she used as inspiration for the movement choice she used?]]> 2016-11-13 07:50:20 UTC https://padlet.com/ewilliams241/bfv7qr9icuxk/wish/137171840 ewilliams241 https://padlet.com/ewilliams241/bfv7qr9icuxk/wish/137218253 Improvisation involves spontaneous movement that you allow to happen naturally. It is not premeditated meaning it is not something you think about before doing. The goal is to move as freely as possible and also learn to make connections with the people and space around you. ]]> 2016-11-13 19:26:53 UTC https://padlet.com/ewilliams241/bfv7qr9icuxk/wish/137218253 ewilliams241 https://padlet.com/ewilliams241/bfv7qr9icuxk/wish/137219993

Body: You should think about the movemen

t of the joints and how they connect to each other.

Space: Think about the space around you when you are dancing, this space is infinite meaning it can go as far as you can imagine. While dancing think about what pathways or patterns you want to create. 

Time: Time involves tempo which is something we use when we create rhythmic movement. While dancing you can choose what tempo you would like to use, maybe one part your body is moving rapidly while other parts are not.

This is just an idea to think about continuously as you move. We will be working on creating scores together as a class. I want you all to be open-minded and willing to accept the ideas of your peers. ]]> 2016-11-14 01:05:44 UTC https://padlet.com/ewilliams241/bfv7qr9icuxk/wish/137246147 ewilliams241 https://padlet.com/ewilliams241/bfv7qr9icuxk/wish/137259343 We can also choose to connect with other people around us during improvisation. This allows you and your partner to create dance together in whatever way you want to. ]]> 2016-11-14 03:36:39 UTC https://padlet.com/ewilliams241/bfv7qr9icuxk/wish/137259343
