Day 24 - October 3rd 2013 (By Mantas Rimeikis)

Blog time ! I am writing this very last minute. Lazy me.

Sooo the 2 weeks of modern jazz almost passed… almost.
I’ve realized that Jazz and contemporary are not my favorite dance styles  :-)

But I’ve learned a lot (stuff like contraction, breathing, falling etc.) during this time, and some of the things the teachers talked about really opened my eyes.

Jenny started the day with a 1 hour long stretching which was a good thing, cause our bodies were destroyed. 

After the stretch we repeated the floorwork techniques and she gave us a task. 

We had to make a partner choreography with lifts, floorwork and other contemporary stuff. She gave us 10 minutes time.  Yup, we are pro’s now :-)

After that I got sick.

I drank some tea and took a nap during the break, so that’s interesting. Most entertaining blog entry ever :-)

Something fun happened during the history class though. There was this guy Rudolf Laban who used the technique called ‘’Movement choyre’’  (basically one dancer is controlling the whole group by shoving them signs when and how to move)
So Jenny let me be the conductor and control the group :-)
I just forced the group to work out a little which was fun to watch.

So yeah , that’s it. I slept on the coach for the rest of the day.

I promise to make my next blog entry more interesting

Love life. Love dance. Love <3
Cha g….
Kallum Khaos – you are not getting away from this :-)
