Unit 13 and 14 The Dolls House run through

 An analysis of my progress in 'The Dolls House dance'

My two strengths:

First of all i would say my use of space is quite strong there is room for improvement but after getting feedback saying i should use the full width of my body and extend a lot more. Another strength i feel quite confident about is my stamina ,it is something i have always considered as a strength i don't get tired often during this dance at all even when i'm putting 100% effort.

My areas for development .

One areas i would like to develop as i find this a weakness would be my shape of the movements i feel like this because the movements aren't fluid whatsoever and they feel unnatural although the dance itself is unnatural the movements didn't have the distinct shape like they should i am hopefully gonna improve this by taking it slow going through the movements i struggle the most with and slowly develop this and see how it goes next time. The other area i would like to improve would be my intensity and where i am looking the song itself needs more blank looks with deep concentration and i will hopefully improve this by focusing on the areas of attention and take what i have learnt from acting lessons and bring it to dance.

Positions of the feet: Pointed: Having pointed toes will  support your technique . When your feet are fully engaged, it further engages the muscles in your legs, providing greater stability and control.

Breath to initiate movement?  In this video you will see a women doing an improvisation o...

Unit 13 and 14 Analysis of progress development and opportunities

Image
Achievements and progress: During the past year i have had many opportunities where i learnt and developed more experience in all kinds of dance.  One area i feel i have developed is extension, compared to my initial introduction to dance in Six the musical i started developing my use of extension mainly in the arms during the contemporary dance workshop with Danieille Gardener from the garage. i learnt a lot about why extension is used and how this links to emotion and general musicality in dance. I thought i progressed in this after listening to feedback from Danieille Gardener who explained how to use this technique to improve my performance not in just contemporary but all genres. Here is two photos which show clearly why i feel i have developed in this area, one being from Six then the other from the contemporary workshop Six: Contemporary workshop: Another area i feel i have developed is my use of coordination, a physical skill. In Six there was  ...
