Oliver and Lauren's dance style requires a lot of skilful movements for their limbs,

1. Core tightening, breathing is sinking, the centre of gravity is low, and it is thick and powerful

Completely different from the light and upright style of ballet

From one person creating a paragraph to grouping into groups of 4-5 people, each person's movements are different, using different times to enter and discover the regularity of work in the group to form a small dance segment

Before the rehearsal began, Lauren and Oliver would take us through warm-up technical training every day. Their training style tends to lean more towards modern dance ground techniques, with a lot of handstands Jumping and Rolling Kicks

The requirements for core and upper and lower limb strength are relatively high

In the beginning circle, we need to sit together on the legs of the person behind us at the same time. I found that for this action, we need to find the most suitable distance between us, the most balanced force, and the frequency of movement.

Because the music of this dance is almost difficult to count and there are no specific rhythm points. So when transitioning between fragments and actions, we need to constantly observe each other and give instructions by setting specific actions.

Sally will give us a theme or keywords to create and develop an action.

1. Dance by imagining the shape of a lighthouse, its surrounding environment, or the path of light projection. I adopted the shape of a pictorial lighthouse: adopting an upright and almost stationary shape; By thinking about the path of the light emitted by the lighthouse: using a motion path like a conical curve sweeping horizontally to my arms and legs.

Imagine actions and emotions by using keywords such as turning off and on lights.

I chose to use different forms of freeze frames to interpret the different visual effects brought about by the transformation of lighting effects.

For example, when the light is turned on, I have a squatting posture, and when the light is turned on again, I have a posture of standing upright and controlling my legs.

Dumping: Imagine the ground being tilted, unstable, and changing in different directions and forces. Set actions by scheduling and exerting force in different directions

Start matching and decomposing each material

Regarding lighting, I believe that this choreography is closely related to dance lighting. Creating a very unique stage visual effect through the switch of lighting

For me, this is my first time participating in this kind of dance with lighting. As a dancer in the early stage of the choreography, I was quite uncertain whether the presented effect was good. However, when we finished recording the first time, as an audience member, I followed the lighting instructions and closed my eyes, seeing a completely new and interesting work.

Afterwards, I became even clearer about how to create dance materials in the future, and what kind of movements would be more suitable and stunning

对sos，因为我们只用了两周就把所有编排任务完成了，所以基本上所有的动作都是设定好了已经。直到今天我们完整的跳过这个舞蹈已经许多次了，在每一次完整的跳完后我都能更加清晰我在这个舞蹈中的情绪和角色、我的哪一个动作没表达到位、某个部分也许那样会更好。

sos 虽然也有部分动作是来源于我们自己，但是也有一些动作是Lauren and Oliver 给予我们的，这通常会对我们有一些难度，我们身体需要一定的时间去适应和解决，但通过多次的训练后我发现我们的身体机能会获得成长会掌握到全新的动作

You've started to understand the essence of our style. You've got great coordination and dance with good intentions. I'd like to see you shift through space more, by sending the hands further away from the feet when inverting and entering the floor. You have a great movement quality, I'd like to see you lift the gaze further and project outwards. Keep working hard and you will go far!
