Week 6 We had the whole group back again and shared parts of last week with the younger set. We did the down and up dances in the large group. There was a little more hesitancy to touch and to help from the middle schoolers. It seemed assisting and the touch involved with that was a boundary to break through, and they did. We spent a major portion of the class refining and expanding the hand dances, creating exits and entrances for the groups to move through the space. Breanna’s dance is developing well, the partnering sections are becoming more fluid. We ended the class again with duets or trios creating a collaborative poem, in renga style, then sharing it as one long connected group poem. This poem centered around the theme of seasons of the self or transitions into new parts of self. A day of returning and deepening into the dances and reintegrating after the break. Time is winding down, we only have four more meeting times before our community sharing.
