Learn Some Choreography..

The following choreography is from 'The Envelope', it is the main phrase which is repeated various time through the work. It is performed on both legs in the routine:-

Right
  • Step into an attitude and pirouette on the right leg, arms are in a curved high 'V' position. During the spin the right foot is flat. The left knee is turned out.
  • The left knee then turns to parallel as it sweeps forward.
  • Step forward on the left leg and double pirouette.
Left
  • Step into an attitude and pirouette on the left leg, arms are in a curved high 'V' position. During the spin the right foot is flat. The right knee is turned out.
  • The right knee then turns to parallel as it sweeps forward.
  • Step forward on the right leg and double pirouette.
Creative Task

After learning this short piece of choreography, I want you to perform these movement on both legs, then create your own development of them. You can add your own movements, but stay within this dance style. Remember to use choreographic devices, for example, motif development- changing levels, directions, speed etc. Work in groups, up to four people in each group.
