Unit 14 Dance Performance

 This is my Rehearsal Log: 10/10/22 In todays rehearsal we did the song ‘All you wanna do’ it is a heavily jazz and particularly inspired by Fosse, It is very controlled and every movement needs to be in complete unison to give the desired effect so it is very important for me that i know every move and deliver each move with passion. There are lots of different isolations, e.g. on the line “*kiss* ah” we have a wrist isolation. My strength of this rehearsal was coordination and control, i really enjoy jazz style of dance and it is my preferred style and i am looking forward to rehearsing this dance more so i can get it tighter. One thing I noticed i need to improve on is that a few times where my legs are supposed to be together they are apart which you can see in the image below, now i know that i have done this it should be an easy fix as i am conscious of it.  In this picture we are doing a lead forward whilst also doing a shimmy/repeated shrug with our shoulders, meanwhil...

 This is my Rehearsal Log: 29/9/22  I think this weeks rehearsal was such a step up compared to anything else I have done, I am so confident in what I am doing that I'm almost in my own world performing. I am successfully doing the choreography and giving the role characterisation and am really pushing towards being done for the final performance. Something that is now of my concern is working on singing and dancing as I have not done that once in all these rehearsals for this song. My target for this is just to practice after college in the rehearsal space so I have enough room to do the dance to its original spacing.

 This is my Rehearsal Log: 5/10/22  I think in all these videos a physical skill I am displaying confidently is Stamina. It is hard to pin point an exact moment but if you watch the last video/dance i feel as it is of a similar energy to the first dance of the day.  I believe this to be true as all these dances are quite tiring yet I am persevering and not showing my discomfort/tiredness on my face instead I am confidently performing my character and carrying on trying to give a good performance. A Skill I thing I have room for development in is my coordination, I feel at moments I can be out of time which is something I really need to work on. I will do this by asking for help from the dance captains and ask if we can do extra rehearsals so that I am completely confident in what I am performing. My targets for next week are to seek help for extra rehearsals so I can truly improve.
