Urban Dance;

I struggled on some movements of performance, yet this was because of simple foot techniques that I kept miss placing. Yet due to this I kept puttting the commitement into this and carried on learning thye next part. Once all performers kept repeating the dance I personally felt much more positive when i performed the choreography. I then got into a small group and performed the Dance infront of the class, this helped as I could visualise each performers techniques, to make sure that I was performing the choreography correctly but also see how each performer made it there own style and used different dynamcis. I performed the dance twice, one with Kat dancing alongside us but also then on are own in the group, this helped alot due to not reliying on Kat and watching her as a guide.

I had never been taught Urban before so I personally found this very interesting due to all the moves being new to me. This therefore was already widering my range of styles and technique that I can use in the near future for choreography and auditions.

I learnt alot of new vocabalary in todays lesson. These were names I had never heard of before and therefore the names were unusual so I found them easy to remember.

The names that I learnt interacted with each movement these were;

Cabbage patch move -

Bart simpson - The Bart Simpson was very sharp, making sure that you hit the beat. The move was all in the arms, hitting the beat when the arms elevated to the top.

Smurf - The Dynamics for the Smurf was very gentle, pushing each arm individuallly to the front, in  a slow motion groove.
