We started by doing a short warm-up by improvising together with our eyes closed for 5 mins and then 10 mins. this worked for us in a previous lesson and soon found that having our eyes closed opens up so many different ideas and feelings.
From this we talked about how our other senses are heightened when our eyes are closed. for example i could hear Ben breathing infront of me so i knew where he was because i could hear him. We found this very interesting as we sometimes felt finding each other was difficult but also interesting to dance.
We began to experiment with the other senses such as sound and touch. With sound we looked at a piece made by Rosa Danst Rosa which experiments with natural and man made sound e.g slapping hands on the floor and breathing heavily. Heres our ideas from each sense that we thought we could explore.
And this is the video we watched by Rosas Danst Rosas. I think the timing of each dancer is amazing and something myself and Ben are exploring together doing certain things at the same time and seeing what effect it has on both ourselves and the audience.
