My perception of what dance and movement is/could be has changed 180 degrees soon after the last 9 weeks . And I believe that the remaining 180 degrees will pivot in the next years. I still can’t believe how much I found about myself while experimenting with my body. And the most important thing for me here would be that I still want to continue this journey of improvisation art! I know that on the assessment day I did not succeed very well, because I tried to do my best, but the amount of information kind of distracted me when tried to adapt all 9 weeks knowledge in 3 hours session. At least I know that I tried… The most surprising thing for me is that finally now I understand how important in dance is EYES and AWARENESS. Of course, we touched more topics, but these two become very important and identifiable for me. And it does not matter weather me or somebody else is performing.
When I read those 5 learning outcomes form the handbook, I’m trying to scan myself from the very first class here. Now it is so funny that I felt so afraid to go into the score at the beginning. I was even afraid to use my body or talk about my experience in front of people in the studio. I did not believe in myself at all, but now I think that all those outcomes 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 complement one another and helped me to build myself. I would be absolutely nothing without those 5 phases…
