Christina Woodard "Carve/Trick/Reach" - Contemporary Online Dance Class/Choreography Tutorial

This exercise asks for extended arms (carving through the space), a small jump with hands on the floor, and big overhead reaches with accents as you bring the arms down.  

Notes
  • This 2, 8 count combo can be repeated across the floor, and evolves as the dancer becomes more familiar.
  • Use plié on the carve section and try to extend those lines through upper body!
  • The jump with hands on floor, can be bigger, travel more, find more balance or tuck with the legs or landing one foot at a time to change it up.
