Document Summary

Today in dance, as we continued working on our performance pieces for. Wednesday, i learned the delicate balance of controlling ones" uncontrolled body. In previous journal, i have discussed focusing on the concept of letting go and letting my body be uncontrolled and relaxed for specific movements. For example, this came up a lot when we were doing the choreography to coldplay"s the scientist. In class we also briefly critiqued the other group"s dances using a method of critiquing i had never heard of before. Basically, instead of giving direct feedback, we stimulated thought in the performing group"s mind by asking them questions about their dance. While i admired this styled approach at critiques for its" indirectness and amiability, overall, i felt this method is less effective than direct comments and criticisms. The main problem i had with this method is that when my group sat down to discuss our questions, we had an argument for every single one.
