Silk Scarf Improvisation
Imagery taken from SRT session last year and from a filmed class (DVD) led by J. Skinner.
Image of a silk scarf being lowered onto the floor.
I chose this to work with, because I think it is an interesting image and gives the opportunity to work with different aspects. Folding, Stacking, Fluidity, Softening, Spiral, Continuity, Suspension.
At first working with the idea of my body being the scarf, imitating the movements.
This felt quite limiting and I felt that I was repeating similar movements often.
Distraction from the imagery, having to remind myself with simple movements.
Reminded me to use my torso.
I could of worked my way through each body part, much like the silk scarf.

Reflection of self
Recently noticing my focus and awareness has developed.
Beginning of the year I asked myself what it meant to be active whilst just walking or in stillness.
After today I feel I have a slightly better understanding.
I think I can thank SRT for this as I felt I connected to the concepts given.
More aware now, I think, of my awareness of my own body and others'.

Can I change the way I use my breath?
Can I keep my breath continuous, especially whilst doing sharp movements or sequences?
'Experiment with this in different classes. It is possible to breath with all kinds of dynamics it may change the breath but it is possible-comes with doing!!'

Relieve tension during dance and movement.
With reference to being codefied there seemed to be specific exercises which were used.
Realised my ability to soften, but how can I continue to soften?

Skinner Releasing Techinique
Introduction to SRT.
Taken influence from alexander technique, to question and prepare dancers for performance.
Multi-directional alignment -3.D being
Highly codefied, not random.
Not sure what to expect in class.
How can it be 'highly codefied'?
