Group dance

action and romance but is also full of intricate music that takes more than one listen to really understand. The tension between the Jets and the Sharks kept me on my toes the entire play. Between the small interactions that took place between the two groups to the large fight I never knew…

I would like to study Early Years Primary Education in order to become a qualified teacher and work with children in a variety of schools. I have always aspired to be a teacher from around the age of 6, due to the fact that I enjoy working with children of all abilities in order to strengthen them academically and as an all round individual. I have completed 4 weeks of works experience at Queens Road Academy, Barnsley. Throughout works experience I was rewarded greatly and learnt many valuable…

from giving Liriana tiresome and strict training. After those few years of harsh training, she knew how to perform on the dance floors with grace. In her later years when she was about 8 years old, her parents let her have a little bit of freedom because of how well she was when doing ballet. One day while she was practising with her other dance partners, she spotted a small group of people who were outside of their region come to visit. Liriana never met anyone outside of her homeland and…

During my grade 12 year of dance I have learned many new skills in both hip hop and ballet that I was able to apply in my final performance. For example, during the dance show we applied slow movements to the hip hop dance. I applied this to my final performance because it taught me that even if my movements are slow and look very graceful that they can still have more energy. This allows me to project the emotion better to the class and in turn help me tell the story of the dance better. Also,…

about “The Interrelations of African Music and Dance”, there was a few points I found interesting. The first thing I’d like to point out is how she mentions that certain movements that are made are chosen within different societies. I find that pretty unique, because no matter what part of Africa you go, you will always see different styles of dancing and different movements. As well as, being able to distinguish the type of differences within the groups. For example, when she mentions the…

and dance on the playing fields, completely oblivious to what was going on during the games. In 5th grade, I was put into my first dance class as a hobby. This happened all because I watched the Disney Channel movie High School Musical and immediately fell in love with it. I showed the movie to my parents and told them, “This is what I want to do.” At the time I thought I excelled in both signing and acting and that all I needed were dance classes. So I started that year with just one dance…

continued to dance. In the Russian documentary I saw five young girls pushing their bodies to the breaking point to become the best, no matter what it took to get there. Dancer place themselves in difficult situations and push their bodies so far to accept pain. They are truly athletes of the greatest degree. Anna Aalten wrote in her journal, In the Presence of the Body: Theorizing Training, Injuries and Pain in Ballet, that humans were not made to stand on their toes, let alone dance. But…

I knew from the moment I walked in to Sleepy Hollow park in Des Moines that I was going to have a good time. I was there for the Renaissance Faire during the Pirates and Wenches week. The smell of food and the sound of chatter was heavy in the air as a man dressed as a knight gave us a wristband, confirming that we had paid to get into the fair. I grinned at Sydney, and she smiled back, our excitement showing. My parents talked about the events as they looked over the schedule, but I wasn’t…
