Another one of my weaknesses is that i find it difficult to really feel each body part and being aware with what each section of my body is doing and how to lead with certain parts not just from your obvious ones. Finally my last weaknesses is that I'm so used to doing jazz that my positions are very sharp and quick whilst contemporary is more relaxed and allows you to be more connected to your body and emotions.
 Strengths
I think that my strengths are that i have confidence in this style of dance because i can really feel it and i enjoy how contemporary can show your feelings, personality and technique through movement.

Target

My target from today is to improve on my posture by engaging my core and reaching up and out through my body.]]> 2017-09-20 21:33:31 UTC https://padlet.com/Sophiegowen/bmr5azaok6qw/wish/189550666 Sophiegowen https://padlet.com/Sophiegowen/bmr5azaok6qw/wish/189554555 My strengths from today is my facial expressions, for example I am using my facials when performing every exercise instead of looking worried about what comes next, I believe this is due to me being more confident with contemporary and the phrases.

Weaknesses

My weaknesses for today is my lack of independence,
I need to start thinking for myself and how I access the situation for example when I forget what motif or sequence comes next or if I am unsure what the movement is.

Targets 

My targets that I have set from today’s lesson is to become more of an independent thinker and have faith in myself to make my own decisions and to work the problem out by myself instead on relying on other people to do it for me.]]> 2017-09-20 21:56:37 UTC https://padlet.com/Sophiegowen/bmr5azaok6qw/wish/189554555 Sophiegowen https://padlet.com/Sophiegowen/bmr5azaok6qw/wish/209050091 I think that my strengths from today lecture was that I was more aware of my body placement and I felt really in contact with the floor also how I was using it to move from different levels, I always think another strength of my was that I was more confident with the floor routine so in stead of just thinking about getting the phrase right I was focusing more on moving efficiently and actually using the space more.  ]]> 2017-11-21 12:05:21 UTC https://padlet.com/Sophiegowen/bmr5azaok6qw/wish/209050091 Sophiegowen https://padlet.com/Sophiegowen/bmr5azaok6qw/wish/209050273 I think that my weaknesses was that I didn’t pick up the new choreography very quickly which meant that I was focusing more on what movement came next instead of adding dynamics and intension to the piece of choreography.

Targets
 
My targets from today’s session is to learn the new choreography by next lesson so that I can apply all the technical aspects that need to be added to it, for example extension, isolation, placement of feet, posture.

Weaknesses 

My weaknesses from today’s lesson was my timing, for example I need to let the movement just flow with no pauses unless it was part of the original choreography.

Targets

My targets for today’s lesson is that I need to feel the movement more in my body so every sections flows into each other instead of having pauses between each section of the choreography.

Then we had to do iut normal routine of arching and Curitiba the back which follows into picturing a Crayon on the back of our skull and with that we have to spell our names out, then our exercise change we were asked to run into a new space but on a (F) as well it out breathe to insure that we were engaging our core as we moved through the space, finally we sped this up by adding the two exercises together then slowly bring it back to where we started which was just breathing

Strengths

my strengths from today's session was my balance and extension, for example  my plies were strong and  the placing of my legs in the foot exercise were well executed.

Weaknesses 

My weaknesses from today's lesson was my stamina, for example in the warm up I struggled to keep my energy up and to control my breathing. ]]> 2017-11-22 12:20:48 UTC https://padlet.com/Sophiegowen/bmr5azaok6qw/wish/209422608 Sophiegowen https://padlet.com/Sophiegowen/bmr5azaok6qw/wish/211348917 2017-11-29 12:18:10 UTC https://padlet.com/Sophiegowen/bmr5azaok6qw/wish/211348917 Sophiegowen https://padlet.com/Sophiegowen/bmr5azaok6qw/wish/246490294 2018-03-27 13:44:35 UTC https://padlet.com/Sophiegowen/bmr5azaok6qw/wish/246490294 Sophiegowen https://padlet.com/Sophiegowen/bmr5azaok6qw/wish/246491395 2018-03-27 13:46:19 UTC https://padlet.com/Sophiegowen/bmr5azaok6qw/wish/246491395 Sophiegowen https://padlet.com/Sophiegowen/bmr5azaok6qw/wish/246491577 2018-03-27 13:46:37 UTC https://padlet.com/Sophiegowen/bmr5azaok6qw/wish/246491577 Sophiegowen https://padlet.com/Sophiegowen/bmr5azaok6qw/wish/255987736 My strengths from today's session was that i had the best jumps in the class because my knees are strong and are over my toes. Another strengths of mine is that i am good at taking feedback and applying it. I believe this is a strength because i want to improve and become the the best dancer i can be by

Weaknesses
My weaknesses that i identified from today session was my balance and strength, for example I need to get lower and plie deeper in the swing exercise. Another weakness of my was that I need to connect more with the floor and get grounded.

Targets 

My target for this week is that I need to listen to the music more, especially when the music is leading the exercise. I need to improve on this because my  rhythmic awareness isn’t very good. ]]> 2018-04-27 13:03:58 UTC https://padlet.com/Sophiegowen/bmr5azaok6qw/wish/255987736 Sophiegowen https://padlet.com/Sophiegowen/bmr5azaok6qw/wish/256013161 My strengths from today’s session is my awareness of space and my body awareness because I am using the space more efficiently and traveling moments that  are required to travel.

Weaknesses

My weaknesses from today’s session was my efficiency, i am not being efficient enough when I am walking and running, I need to get lower and hold my core at all times so that it is engaged.

Targets  

My targets for this week is that I need to work on my body awareness so that I know when I’m holding my core and to know when to engage it.

Weaknesses

My weaknesses from today's lesson was my co-ordination for example in heroes choreography i was unsure on directions and which arms and legs we use in certain sections of the movement.

Targets 

My targets from this session is to learn the material until i am confident then look at adding clarity of actions and dynamics which are choreographed in the piece.

Weaknesses   

My weaknesses from today's session was my placement of feet, for example when i did a shunt my foot was not turned out which meant that every time I would land I would loose my balance and fall out of it.

Target 

My target for next week is to improve on my extension through my body by using my kinesphere to really execute every motif correct. ]]> 2018-04-27 15:14:46 UTC https://padlet.com/Sophiegowen/bmr5azaok6qw/wish/256049237
