DO YOU BELIEVE DANCE IS INNATE? IS SELECTION HEALTHY? WHAT COULD SELECTION ALSO REPRESENT? IN A WORLD OF MULTIPLICITY are we shutting out possibility and potential through rigid selection based on a set of rules? Who makes up the rules and who believes them? OUR BODIES ARE LIVING, BREATHING SPONGES! How much do we retain? Is this only possible through repetition? Can we only draw on movement years later that has been ingrained. Is this a form of 'brain-washing' with the body? What could be the benefits as well as the dangers? Please can you blog back an example from your own experience of a certain set of codes that have been created for a dance style and by who - what you think their reasons were? Does repetition, routine fit the purpose for creative people? Can too much drill result in crushing creativity or support certainty and are the instincts the body learns our own? Would love to hear your thoughts on this.
