Day 59 - November 28th 2013 (By Denice M.Solberg)

Hello blog!! 

This week is intense, but today we luckily had a little bit more of a relaxed day. 

You know there´s going to be a charity X-Mas Show next Sunday? ....so we are all working on our solo’s for the show.  I’m working on something a little bit different than the others. I’m trying to pick up my old contemporary/jazz/ballet tecnique to dance a little Christmas piece. Trying to involve everybody of the 1YEP’ers in this piece. It is very challenging, but I like the challenge. Anton is helping me a lot and it’s wonderful to work with him! Great partner and his work ethic inspires me and pushes me.

So this week has been pretty intense so far, we are getting pushed a lot by Sara Gaardbo in Floorbarre and Contemporary, and by Michel Patric Sian in Hip Hop Choreography. It’s been a while since I felt like I really had to fight with stamina.....Michel is really kicks our stamina. It is very fun though, and he is a great choreographer. It’s really nice to have something fresh in the education. Like some classes that are just for fun, and not always to work super hard on everything we can’t do. Michel’s classes were more for us to test what we already learned. Sara’s classes on the other hand are new to us, and so hard.   I thought I knew my body pretty well, but having her at the education makes me realize how much knowledge I am lacking. Knowledge about your body can make you last as dancer for a good while, so I’m definitely taking her classes seriously. 

I am still excited about life, the education is still amazing, Lin and K are still nice to us, we are still all friends, sooo… good night!! :-)
