First Lesson- Thursday 11th September 2015

It was great to start AS Dance. I wasn’t sure what to expect as it was the first lesson but I really enjoyed working on contemporary technique as I haven’t had much experience in this style other than during GCSE Dance.
At first I was a bit panicked at the pace we were learning the exercises but it was great to test myself with picking things up quickly and looking at the details such as wether the knees are bent or wear the head is facing.
My favourite exercise was the one swaying side to side. It helped me learn to loosen up and let go of any tension. Especially on the first sways I had to loosen my head to help the movements flow and get more in to the flow making each movement connect a lot more.
I need to work on my high release and contractions throughout this week. Making sure I don’t loose my posture and stick my chest out. Throughout the lesson i was trying to loosen up and not keep my head facing the front the whole time as it ruined the lines.
