Looking at my performance within this short clip shows weak arm lines and poor technique in the pirouette position. Looking back at this clip reminds me how much more i have improved and expanded my vocabulary. ]]> 2017-03-18 07:19:40 UTC https://padlet.com/jasminefontaine09/qhjrahmvvmax/wish/160913152 jasminefontaine09 https://padlet.com/jasminefontaine09/qhjrahmvvmax/wish/160913439 During semester 1 within my Jazz lessons we learnt the different port des bras within the Matt Mattox technique. Key points to understand within the technique are your arm and head lines, for example on the first one your head must be attached to your back.  There are also numerous contraction points within the sequences that gives dynamic to the port de bras. ]]> 2017-03-18 07:28:18 UTC https://padlet.com/jasminefontaine09/qhjrahmvvmax/wish/160913439 jasminefontaine09 https://padlet.com/jasminefontaine09/qhjrahmvvmax/wish/174118000 Reflecting on this video of me performing a Tondu exercise, some of the weaknesses that i pointed out where; 

-Lack of holding turn out. 
-Use of full Pointe was not executed fully. 
- A relaxed arm i second position.

The different dynamics in the routine give us the chance to expand on it in our own style. ]]> 2017-05-29 09:03:52 UTC https://padlet.com/jasminefontaine09/qhjrahmvvmax/wish/174220513 jasminefontaine09 https://padlet.com/jasminefontaine09/qhjrahmvvmax/wish/174222268 16th August 1921- 18 February 2013. 
Although during out Jazz lessons with Eric we focus on Matt Mattox technique it is important to understand who evolved jazz as its codified technique. 

Luigi was known as the father of Jazz since he is credited to be the person who created Jazz technique. ]]> 2017-05-29 09:15:40 UTC https://padlet.com/jasminefontaine09/qhjrahmvvmax/wish/174222268 jasminefontaine09 https://padlet.com/jasminefontaine09/qhjrahmvvmax/wish/174339199 In the 1920s, '30s and '40s, dancer/choreographer Lester Horton developed a dance technique based on Native American dances, anatomical studies and other movement influences. In addition to creating his technique and choreographing a number of works, Horton established the Lester Horton Dance Theater, one of the first permanent theaters dedicated to modern dance in the U.S., in L.A. in 1946. (It closed its doors in I960.) He was also among the first choreographers in the U.S. to insist upon racial integration in his company-in his 1995 autobiography, Revelations, Alvin Ailey wrote, "What it came down to was that, for Lester, his art was much more important than the color of a dancer's skin." Horton's legacy is perhaps most visible today in Ailey's work, and Horton technique is the foundation for masterpieces.]]> 2017-05-30 05:17:33 UTC https://padlet.com/jasminefontaine09/qhjrahmvvmax/wish/174339199 jasminefontaine09 https://padlet.com/jasminefontaine09/qhjrahmvvmax/wish/174339796 https://youtu.be/SGKClA27FI4]]> 2017-05-30 05:26:16 UTC https://padlet.com/jasminefontaine09/qhjrahmvvmax/wish/174339796 jasminefontaine09 https://padlet.com/jasminefontaine09/qhjrahmvvmax/wish/174339880 To enhance my confidence in creating choreography or expanding on taught choreography, In my spare time have been or will be creating short pieces.

This clip will demonstrate what barre work we undertake within our training lessons at Shockout Arts to ensure we are ready for centre work. Ballet classes all run aside each other as there is a set layout for how a class should be run. I have also become aware about warming up using a method called floor barre, which helps oil the hip joints and feet. ]]> 2017-05-30 06:29:11 UTC https://padlet.com/jasminefontaine09/qhjrahmvvmax/wish/174344874
