Slow is good and doesn’t it encourage us to focus, think about our breathing, alignment and take time to feel our control? Your adaptations sound great – always important to be able to adapt exercises and use of available equipment. Looking forward to hearing how you get on with it.

Deborah,
I tried watching the video on the vimeo site as you suggested. It still cut out a great deal , but with a lot of
“rewinding” I managed to hear most of it.
Thank you,
Brandi

Aigli, I had 2 students working on their pirouettes as their project last semester and they found it was so important to imagine themselves doing it calmly and easily. That is when they really started making progress! I know you can do it!

This video need to be seen by as many students of dance as possible! I have witnessed so many students with great ability just defete themselves with their mind!!!!! Having always taught,” What the mind believes-the mind achieves” this video is a wonderful way to continue the process.

Deborah,
you ‘ve done a great job!Congratulations! The last 3 months I struggle to perform a double pirouette en pointe and I think I constantly sabotage myself by thinking how hard this can be. After your video, I will try to use a reverse thinking!
Thank you for your valuable information!
