2ND November (Cunningham Plies)


In this exercise we should be improving/working our back flexibility through upper body twists; which also improves control. Our leg tension by plies in first. Arm tension in plies. Leg flexibility/tension through lower plies. Foot extention through raising feet whilst doing a plie. Tension and control when hold foot rise in plie.

Throughout this video I am hard to see however at 0.05 you see that I need to put my bum in. At 0.09 you can see my upper body twist, I look focused and the twist is controlled and held for the right amount of counts. At 0.13 my arms are too far back to improve this I need more control in my shoulders. At 0.15 my arch is good however my plie could be bigger/lower. At 0.17 my plie is good, I have control and am focused and I am also well tensioned and low. At 0.22 my twist is agin well controlled and spotted well.

 At 0.34 my arch back is too far back; to improve this I need more control of my shoulders. At 1.01 my arms are just slightly too far back to improve this I need to work on my control. At 1.16 my arm tension needs to be alot more. At 1.22 my plie could be alot lower; learning the splits will help my leg flexibility. At 1.29 my foot could raise alot more, to improve this I need to work on my foot strength.

In this exercise my strength are my lower plie control and tension is very clear as you can see in the picture I have screen shot. My upper body twist are well controlled and I have focus through out this exercise which shows I have made an improvement.

In this exercise my weaknesses are my accurcey within my arms to improve this I need to work on my spacial awareness. Although my plies are good I need to work on getting them a bit lower to therefore improve my lower flexibility. I also need to make sure my lower half has better tension (keep my bum in)


Targets:
  • Lower tension- Keep my bum in!
  • Spacial Awareness- More control of upper body
  • Get my piles lower- Lower flexibility.
