water/surfer dance

Water/surfer dance

Start with laying down extended with our head/forehead touching the floor and our hands placed straight behind us.
we breath in making a shush sound and raise our head as high as it can go while the rest of our body is still laying flat on the floor.
We bring both of our arms to the front by dragging them along the floor to make a water sound, slide the right arm across the left and roll onto your right side.
and rise up on your right knee white straight arms across on our sides with our breath, shushing. then we roll back onto the floor and lay down in the starting position.

I thought that this exercise and movement sequence was very well done especially because it adds to the atmosphere we are trying to create, the hand movement on the carpet created the sounds of waves which made the idea of the sea come across a lot more. The skills i needed when doing this was the capability to work as an ensemble and have fluidity in the movements we were creating, especially because the movement represents waves which were already quite soft and airy. All the movements had to join and not be separate.
