Summer Term week 4

My plans got a bit of a change, when there was only one person there! I'm editing this post to be more true to reality.

We started the Veil work today with a recap of the Neck Drape/Angel Wings from last week. I added a couple more Angel Wings options, but we didn't have as much time, so we didn't cover everything I had planned. Not to worry, we'll do it next week!

I was sticking with my Combinations for the technique part of the lesson, working with the Forward Back Step as our starting point:
  • The FB only combinations were:
    • A Reverse Pivoting Variation. This is a Forward Back step (R foot leading) for count of 6, then for the Back step cross the R foot behind you, to pivot backwards (turning 90° to your R). In four goes, you'll have turned all the way around.
      (You can do a fancier version by turning 270°, which looks very impressive and difficult, but I don't expect you to try this one!)
    • Forward Back step (R foot leading) slow count (1234), tip toes (for speed), fast count (1234,1234). Sorry it doesn't make much sense written down, but watch the video!

  • The FB plus other moves combinations I had planned were:
    • Forward Back step (R foot leading) for count of 4, Hip hits R x 4
    • Forward Back step (R foot leading) for count of 6, side step RLR (on 7&8)  to R, repeat with L foot leading and travelling to L.
    • Forward Back step (R foot leading) for count of 4, cross step (R to L) & lunge to L and up again.
However, again, we didn't have so much time available, so we didn't do all of these. We'll go through them all again next week. So this vid is a bit of a spoiler for those who weren't here!
