We also looked at the practitioner Magdalena Tuka. In this lesson we focused on exploring the space in a more playful manner. We really experimented and explored the room we were in and all of the ways we could move around the space. We did this in a cat-like way crouched down, using our hands and feet to contact the floor, which allowed our flexibility to be heightened and allowed us more freedom to experiment with the room.
We explored the boundaries of distance and closeness. We got into partners, I was with Nora, and we had to move around the space, never breaking eye contact. It was like a trance-like dance between two people and the connection between you was lost if you broke eye contact. We had to try to keep our balance and experimented with different levels, such as moving on the floor, crawling, walking around the room, including turns and spins - always keeping eye contact, which allowed us to find the ability to play and create an atmosphere in the room, which would be perfect for our piece.
