Alex, jo and me spend five minutes experimenting with joints in our fingers
You shouldnt be losing your focus
Your using to control that- do without thinking- dance
Your developing something new- trying- its exhuasting because its new- dancing is really good- its about what your learning from yourbody while you do that- just go for it - if you want to move freely with the music just do it- its your choice.

Music starts again.
Think of the journey- we need to come back to this focus that we were having- it was interesting watching you work- your focus was really interesting- think of the journey, not just the movement
Music changes completely- heavy rock and roll
Music stops…..
But there is still movement
Ok guys.
One last thing, same principle, i want you to add something to it- your going to walk towards us.

One by one, they take it in turns to move, aware of every slight movement. Patience. Air thick with antipation, who will move next?

Like a school game, weeping angels. They get closer. We know how it will end. They will reach us. But who first? One. by. One. Not all at once. Not all together. But by being patient. Etiquiete. Manners in movement.
