13/03/15 Dance Lesson Cats Rehearsal.

In this lesson we carryed on with the dance for Cats to the song, 'The Peaks and the Pollicles', we went on with the dance and added new bits as we went, 

First we revised what we had done, and we delt with some of the timing issues that it had from last week, one of the timing problems was the stairs and into the lift between Jess and I. We had to pick a time in the song, where Jess started to climb on people backs then onto my shoulders. We felt that this worked quite well on the Barks, this worked well as this section has a clear beat, we had a moment when we dropped jess down, ready to go into our routine. 

We then went into a new section of the song which we our doing in pairs, i am with Jess, this section has very different dynamics to the first section as everything is slow and flowing movements, Where as in the first section, where each tabloo moves along in a punchy beat, where there are no gaps between the moves. The last bit of the dance that we did today was the face off between the two characters, this bit is very simple, and we just do some basic tabloos and moves and link to the lyrics. 

In preperation for next lesson im going to work on my balance, as in this dance there is alot of change in levels, from being on the floor on one leg, too being up on our toes. However in this lesson i think i did quite well with focusing and having imput on what i thought would work well in the dance, that would explore lots of different level and dynamic changes.
