4 days ago
- The author discusses underdeveloped feet as a point-line-surface continuum affecting stability, and the need to retrain the foot to regain surface stability.
- Clumsiness may not be innate but rather a developmental issue due to lack of proprioceptive mastery or trauma; dance students vary widely in ability to replicate movements.
- Connection in partner dance is often mystical but can be analyzed physically; openness and compatibility matter, and dancers should understand their own experiences.
