A movement poem for March 25, 2020 by Jill Randall

 

drop

drip

 

bend

fold

 

twist

spiral

 

elongate

hold.

 

shrink

small stir

soft look

slow retreat

 

big swing

little tilt

big reach

grab a hold.

Hello! Today's poem goes well with "7 40" by Michael Wall. It is #3 of this album. You can listen to the entire piece here.

I hope you will be inspired to choreograph a short phrase with today's poem.

May I suggest for today – to first go through each line of the poem. Can you create and explore at least 6 different ideas for each line (ex. 6 different twisting movements) before you choreograph and set a phrase?

Thanks for dancing and moving today!
