each day we start class with a brainstorming session on some related topic and meditate on the topic for two minutes. having a time to brainstorm, free associate, contemplate, draw connections and conclusions that were previously elusive helps evote the creative mindset for the rest of the class. -- Choreography and dance are not just about flying or feeling or being the best- it's about thinking, sharing, refining and clearly seeing. An artist not only makes thing but an artist sees things differently, knows it is possible to see the world in a slightly different way.
Do you believe me? Why?
Last year we used single words to trigger ideas, sensations in the body and relationships to each and each other. This year we are using things that other artists say about art. For instance:
"Art can not stand still in the face of change"
"those who dance are consiered insane by those who can't hear the music" (G. Carlin)
"ballet technique never becomes easy, it becomes possible" (A. deMille)
there is always a very interest conversation that follows to begin our creative process! Can't wait to hear what Emily and Kevin bring into discuss today!
