Creative Movement

Hi Lakeshore Students,
At the beginning of class we enter to the drum exploring and moving musically in our space.  Here are some creative movement activities you can do at home in your space!  I've organized them by concept.  These ideas come form Feierabend's Movement Exploration book.
Awareness of Time:
Divide your room into two areas-- fast land and slow land.  Move around the room quickly when you are in fast land and go into slow-motion when in slow land.  You can pretend you are a super hero that has incredible speed or you've been trapped in a time warp and need to calculate each move!
Awareness of Parts and a Whole:
Play some fun music that you like to move/dance to.  Glue a body part to the floor.  (Not literally, just pretend!)  So try dancing with all of your other body parts except the part glued to the floor.  Try glueing one foot, or one hand, or your head!  The sky is the limit.  Send me a video if you like!
Awareness of Flow
Are you still playing fun dance music?  Turn on the radio if you need to.  Oh no!  You are a robot that's been left out in the rain and snow.  You are rusty and you can't move in your typical robot way, your joints are hard to bend!  Move this way across the room until you find some oil and then dance your typical robot dance!

Miss You!
