23 Adornos: Solo Practice
Ex1 Using a counter or wall for a little support and any shoes you like without music, explore all the different forms of motion of the free leg specified in the video sections 1.1-1.6 and then adornos during transfer (section 2). Do each type of motion at least 10 times to get used to it.
Ex2 Combining. Still working without music, slowly explore and play with combinations between the different kinds of motions. Try to find your own combinations that you never saw before!
Ex3 Now put on some music and dance, enjoying lots of adornos, combined with ochos and molinete lineal. See the video “Dancing with Kitchens” as a model.
23 Adornos: Pair Practice
Ex1 Using a counter or wall for a little support and any shoes you like without music and working alone, explore all the different forms of motion of the free leg specified in the video sections 1.1-1.6 and then adornos during transfer (section 2). Do each type of motion at least 10 times to get used to it.
Ex2 Combining. Still working without music, slowly explore and play with combinations between the different kinds of motions. Try to find your own combinations that you never saw before!
Ex3 Now put on some music and dance (still alone) , enjoying lots of adornos, combined with ochos and molinete lineal. See the video “Dancing with Kitchens” as a model.
Ex4 Now that you are really comfortable with adornos, dance together. In the first song, the Mark should pause a lot and expect tons of adornos (too much!) from the Revel. In the subsequent songs, he should try to make it clear when he’s giving time and when not. Be sure to give the Revel feedback both about when it works really well, and when it disrupts your Mark. In the last dance, the Mark should try not giving any space at all, to let the Revel practice adorning with more speed to “sneak” adornos in. Be sure to compliment her when she’s successful!
