In pairs we mind-mapped key components of contemporary dance and what defines it as a style. Some of these include: Floorwork, Flexion, Contraction, (High) release and spiral- pioneered by Martha Graham; Use of the torso, tilting, twisting, curving and arching- pioneered by Merce Cunningham; and various others like: use of parallel, body percussion and gestures.
We also thought about the different choreographic devices that we could use in order to develop motifs in order to create new and innovative movement.
