First Session with Matthias Sperling

On Tuesday, 'Influx' (Our Performance Project company) had our first session with our choreographer Matthias Sperling.  We'd been set some tasks before he came but we still didn't really know what to expect.

We spent some time working with the concept of 'what lights, leads' so whichever body part lights up for whatever reason, leads your movement. 

Towards the end of the day, we started working with 'yellow, orange and red disasters'.  We each had to come up with 3 different disasters and create some movement.  The idea was that if we were dancing superheroes, how would we rescue or solve the situation usinf our skills as performers?  I'll upload my disaster images and explanations soon.

I really enjoyed our first session and I'm very much looking forward to working more with 'Influx' and Matthias over the next few weeks.
