Pelvis and Legs

Mapping the pelvis with our own fingers--> surprising shape

Giving the weight of my legs made me so free, someone moving my legs felt like they were not mine, I didn't need to think about them, I just enjoyed them moving, open spaces, flexibility.

I really celebrate my legs!!!

Taking the wieght of someone's legs made me realize how heavy they are and it is interesting to move someone's leggs in so many different directions.

The legs' bones go so far up

Moving after the hands on, made me move easily and even reaching out into the space, but I felt like I needed to give directions to my partner, it was a surprising play for us.

Finding the liver

I was thinking now at my organs because I'm not feeling that well. So I need to talk a little bit abour this class: Working with organs

• The organs are situated within 3 cavities: skull, toracic, abdomen.
• Polly brang into the studio fluid baloons, just to percieve how it feels to have an organ into my hand (I noticed the density of it and the fact that the shape changes)
• I was also surprised by how obvious the blood streams are and the connective tissues.
• We also played with finding and even massaging our own liver/partne's liver.

Partner work (15+15)
 relax inner muscles, moving from the organs, heaviness in the lower back, rolling from organs, breathing through organs, fluidity and softness, surface, expanding in my hands, finding and even seing/scaning the organs.

ORGANSSSS

26.10.2011
This morning Polly brang to our attention as dancers the organs, that are situated inside of the skull, abdomen and thorax. We had water baloons, that simulated the fluidity and weight of the organs and she even brang a sheep liver, which is similar to the human liver.

15 min of partner work

• relaxing the inner
• heaviness
• rolling from the organs
• breathing through the organs
• surprised by the fluidity and softness of the body
• explanding the lungs on my hands---> a small movement, but it fells so huge!
