Strengths and weaknesses for applying contemporary dance technique

One of my strengths was my use of rhythmical sense while doing the release technique exercise. For example, this was presented as I was able to be able to follow the counts of the dance. Also, being able to go along with the music. Which shows how I have a strong use of musicality through out performing. Furthermore, it establishes that I am easily able to pick up the counts and timing of the sequence

Another strength which I had was physical features. For example, I was able to represent this through being able to perform technique features coming from contemporary dance. For example, leaps, pirouettes, attitude turn and etc. This suggests that going to extra technique classes has really helped my physical features become more improved.

One of the strengths that was represented when applying contemporary dance technique is my use of strength. For example, this was represented as of how I have safety over other dancers i.e. making sure that I lift someone in the right position. Having a good use of strength came from having a strong core. This of which came from practicing core exercises such as planks, crunches and etc.

In contrast, one of my weaknesses was my mood/use of facial features. For example, when practicing the set example of the sequence of release technique. During this practice I was presenting the movements correctly. However, I was not showing any emotion or facial expression during it. One way of how I am going to improve this is by auditioning for the musical, "hairspray" at college. Which will allow me to correspond my sense of mood with the movement within a sequence or a dance piece.

One of my other weaknesses was my use of gravity. For example, this was representing when doing the sequence. As, I did not have enough balance while performing the technical aspects of applying contemporary dance. Such as doing off-balance movements. Through the use of doing this will help me strengthen my legs in order to maintain and sustain balance. In hence to increase the suspension given out. Which is required in release technique exercises.

My last weakness that I captured during class rehearsals is my use of suspension. For example, when I was doing some release technique exercises but I was not throwing myself enough. For this reason I would need to put into the effort of quality required for the execution of the movement. I am going to be improving my use of suspension by practicing jumps from the corner in the dance studio. Furthermore, I am going to use in the mirror in order to help me see if i am heaving myself.
