Movement 3

(Please come at 2.30pm to do warm ups)

1) Please listen to the song I’ve attached here. We’ll be dancing this in class. Do think about the role you will be playing.

2) According to victor, tight clothing is a must. As in tight tops lah. So yes. I stress on this (unfortunately). Wear tight tops. Don’t forget o wear something comfortable like tracksuits (NO jeans or anything that restrict movements) and what nots. (He’s serious about the topless or/and bottomless thingy. He’ll do it ill tell you. Beware.)

If you will come in late or not at all, please call me before hand. Let’s be respectful of other okay. Don't take them for granted. I can’t read minds yea? And if you have any problems of homework or anything I typed above, call me as well so I could arrange something. Use me for heaven sakes. That’s what I’m here for.

See you in Sspace on time…

p.s: I stress this again: please prepare yourself a file and papers that you can keep the notes victors passes to you or take notes as he explain. This will keep us organize and shows that we’re serious about what we’re doing. Thanks.

sorry but im doing the best i can to satisfy everyone.


hey y'all..

How was the long weekend? a lot has happened since xmas... if any of you had lost anyone in the recent tragedy i am sorry. i had lost my distance relative... ;-(

anyway , cut to the chase...

1) Next practise time ( 16/1/05) Saturday - class will start earlier from 3.00pm to 7.30. This is to catch up what we have missed due to last week's poor attendance. There were many things we could get into like group sessions because of this. And because of this too, all those who came could not learn so much.. but they had fun performing their prepared homework.

2) Home work - I dont know if some of you did prepare or not but your absence will not excuse your from performing the homework!.... so to those who didnt come for last Sat class pls be on time . Your session will start first. If you missed class due to acceptable reasons.... well.... youre still not getting away from this one.. heheh

Actually i dont want to sound like a slave driver .. because its not slavery work.. its actually fun. You guys can ask those whio attended the last class. We had good laugh, good insights and good look into our friends 'other sides' ( like some ppl can be a realllll tiger arrhhhh!). If any of you are still unclear or stuck , please please mail me or better yet sms me for help. Im here for u...... ok.. that didnt come out right.. see !!! now i sound off a cheap boy band lyrics!!

3) Impressed - To those who came prepared - smilling nods for u. To those who came prepared with well planned creative pieces - our claps go to you. Here i have to give credit when its due... some of us who i didnt think would 'move' as well, suprised me. u know who u r. It pleases me to see u both are thinking and feeling whatever you are doing. Syabas!!! Of course the best actor award goes to...(drm roll)..... ARIFF... also with best make up and best use of props award!!! (WWWWRRAAAAHHHHH!!!!!). We see, we feel, we know when effort is put in. Lets all do the same ok :-) coz the rest of u ARE equally brilliant too.

4) Next week's lesson - i think we have done well on expressions and translation from text, lyrics, music, story to movement. Next week lets move into more exciting terrritory.. lets get physical!! yes lets get down and dance!!!! well.. we ccant learn all the technique in a session but well be doing 2 opposite styles ( me and my opposites again!!) of socio-culture character expressions in dance - (1) the high street, busy metropolitan, city folk lifestyle , and (2) the raw, community concious, tribal african village lifestyle...scared yet??? hehe .. dont be...basically well just be doing the Vogue vs. African dance thingie... Idora will email you a sample of the 2 songs on MP3 (cut down to 1 min to reduce the file size) so you can, at least, get an idea on our upcoming lesson. pls download and listen it.

So were gonna have to do half hour of theory study with notes then move into practical stuff. There gonna be a lot to do next class. Were also be doing facial _expression, posture and techincal finishing in various genre - modern, contemporary, ballet, asian, funk, breakdance, latin etc.. So... come and discover your moves and grooves ... (ok now i sound off a beaten down dance school ad)... ok so u get my drift..

with all said and ..... typed,

REMEMBER!!!!

* come on time
* wear movable costume - NO JEANS!!! i still see 1 or 2 of you still wearing JEANS. NO shirts too. This is This is NOT some after office social club!! Try to wear tight fitting tops ( like singlet or tight tshirt) so we can see your posture. PPL IM DEAD SERIOUS ABT THIS. if you dont come in proper clothings, im gonna force u to dance topless! (and bottomless if u wear jeans)
* prepare yourselves - get enuf sleep. Eat lunch. Theres gonna be a lot of fun physical work


till then
