International 10.2.14

Today we worked on the chairs exercising each muscle through movement phrasing , I feel this is fantastic due to learning something new all the time about how the body/ muscles work. 

We then learnt new movements for the milonga, this was physically hard due to the co-ordination and focus you needed! However once you hAd got the alternation of co-ordination I felt this got easier and finally got the movement. The emigrant was then placed into the choreography near middle were this was going to be performed solo next to my partner 

Urban ; 10.2.14

Today I felt drilling the urban and jazz pieces helps my choreographic memory alot due to the dynamics and corrections going into my head & remembering them as so much repetition is happening.

Corrections are still being made, on the old Skool hip-hop I need to characterise the section so much! Due to it being funk and having a strong relationship throughout that performance section! However in the breaking at the start me an the other girls do vogue poses on each beat drop therefore time management is important which I feel physically that I have got correct but also I need to make sure each pose is sharp and fierce showing the dynamics throughout every 5 poses. 

Later in the lesson a lady from chi Chester came I felt this helped me alot an drilled alot of knowledge into my brain feeling physically ready more for my next audition.

Tuesday 4 feb

Followed on recalling all the technique phrasing we have learnt throughout the weeks, I feel this helps me A lot with my technique but also with posture ready for prep on auditions. 

We then ran over the fast car routine due to more development that I missed previous lesson due to audition, Chloe went over the old Skool hip-hop with me and I felt I physically picked it up well and was good to have everyone being supportive , I then got shown the structure which was a homeless solo, old Skool hip-hop and then chorus, 

I learnt the wacking sequence, and rehearsed this full out while a small group was learning a lift technique. I loved the wacking but love house. So when auditioning Im going to decide which one looks more technique & I feel more natural performing. 

During the end of the lesson, we recapped the urban for let's dance' in some sections I felt I forgot some sections expecially the technique for old school, but I feel being fully drilled helps my physicality of memory and dynamics alot more positive! 

Ballet 9.1.14

I am now starting ballet and therefore I feel this will help me on technique aswell as my memory ready to approach auditions and day to day dance classes
