Core Techniques 2 by Kate Hannah https://padlet.com/katehannah/sq97av6bo56m 1705728 en-us 2019-04-25 17:48:06 UTC 2025-05-07 14:50:53 UTC hello@padlet.com Source 5B This video shows my (first) own contemporary choreography. Exploring pathways and focusing on intention behind movement is something I've really enjoyed throughout contemporary training. When I first started Shockout I had a lot of energy and was very messy as a result. Contemporary classes with Jasmin have definitely helped me focus my energy in the right way. I look forward to continuing my journey within contemporary and building the confidence in creating more choreography. katehannah https://padlet.com/katehannah/sq97av6bo56m/wish/354821670 2019-04-28 21:35:47 UTC https://padlet.com/katehannah/sq97av6bo56m/wish/354821670 Source 2A The below link shows Bob Fosse's "Rich Man's Frug" from "Sweet Charity". It is a world renowned piece that perfectly demonstrates Fosse's unique style that is easily recognisable. Learning this piece of choreography was very challenging as it required use of lateral muscles throughout and had to be performed to a high standard to fit the style. katehannah https://padlet.com/katehannah/sq97av6bo56m/wish/354822102 FredsChannelOne.

This is been something I have struggled with but with the perseverance and consistency in practicing every day, it has become achievable. katehannah https://padlet.com/katehannah/sq97av6bo56m/wish/354822234 2019-04-28 21:41:31 UTC https://padlet.com/katehannah/sq97av6bo56m/wish/354822234 Source 5A I stretch daily to increase my flexibility, allowing for a greater range of movement and extension. The attached video shows a few examples of what I will do to improve my splits by opening up the hip flexors. katehannah https://padlet.com/katehannah/sq97av6bo56m/wish/354822364 2019-04-28 21:42:57 UTC https://padlet.com/katehannah/sq97av6bo56m/wish/354822364 Source 4B A ballet adage will flow through the piano accompaniment. The slow movement portrays transitions between positions proving technical strength and also the rhythmic qualities of ballet. I enjoy performing a ballet adage due to the strength required being such a challenge. katehannah https://padlet.com/katehannah/sq97av6bo56m/wish/354823605 Vaganova Ballet Academy (2016) Vaganova Ballet Academy.

This results in the rhythmic features to fit what the music is portraying exactly, somewhat embodying the composition. This video shows Josh Wharmby's choreography for a live performance by Ariana Grande. As you can see in the video, the dancers are highlighting the obvious musical accents and the artist's vocals. katehannah https://padlet.com/katehannah/sq97av6bo56m/wish/354823908 2019-04-28 21:58:16 UTC https://padlet.com/katehannah/sq97av6bo56m/wish/354823908 Source 1A This video shows the sharp dynamics of commercial dance. katehannah https://padlet.com/katehannah/sq97av6bo56m/wish/355649390 Choreographed by Sinead Darnell (2019) open class.

These positions are held with strength from engaging lateral muscles. katehannah https://padlet.com/katehannah/sq97av6bo56m/wish/355649602 2019-04-30 22:52:17 UTC https://padlet.com/katehannah/sq97av6bo56m/wish/355649602 Source 3D My understanding of the use of articulation through the metatarsals of the feet has improved my point, creating a longer, more elegant leg line. This clip shows an example of some exercises I practice to warm up my feet allowing for maximum flexibility whilst reducing injury potential. katehannah https://padlet.com/katehannah/sq97av6bo56m/wish/355650009 2019-04-30 22:54:55 UTC https://padlet.com/katehannah/sq97av6bo56m/wish/355650009 Source 3E Strength and control when holding my leg to the side has improved massively over the past few months. I used to struggle lifting my leg off the barre and I can now do this with control. There is still progress to be made in the height of the leg, but this will be easily achievable as I now understand the positioning of the body to allow the leg to go higher. katehannah https://padlet.com/katehannah/sq97av6bo56m/wish/355650700 2019-04-30 22:59:18 UTC https://padlet.com/katehannah/sq97av6bo56m/wish/355650700 Source 5C An image of me doing splits, proving the stretches practiced in 5A have been successful as I had not even warmed up prior to this and was able to sit comfortably in the position. katehannah https://padlet.com/katehannah/sq97av6bo56m/wish/356106249 An image of me doing splits, proving the stretches practiced in 5A have been successful as I had not even warmed up prior to this and was able to sit comfortably in the position.]]> 2019-05-02 08:41:35 UTC https://padlet.com/katehannah/sq97av6bo56m/wish/356106249 Source 3F This image shows a lateral position within the Horton contemporary technique. katehannah https://padlet.com/katehannah/sq97av6bo56m/wish/356419519 2019-05-02 22:28:58 UTC https://padlet.com/katehannah/sq97av6bo56m/wish/356419519 Source 3G This image shows a flatback practiced in Horton technique. katehannah https://padlet.com/katehannah/sq97av6bo56m/wish/356419789 2019-05-02 22:30:58 UTC https://padlet.com/katehannah/sq97av6bo56m/wish/356419789 Source 3C A website useful for highlighting the differences between styles of dance. katehannah https://padlet.com/katehannah/sq97av6bo56m/wish/356721709 Ambrosino (2014)The dance styles of So You Think You Can Dance, explained.
