Reflections on the movement module

Overall I feel very positive about the movement module, I have learnt some very valuable skills throughout, and have already seen and witnessed through my own experiences how these can be used in all aspects of my performance. I think that my positive view on the module from the beginning and my open minded attitude has allowed me to take in as much of the learning as possible, and therefore has aided my understanding of the process and results a lot more than I initially anticipated. I think that my improved organisation has allowed me to focus more on the current learning at each stage, and therefore I have been able to concentrate more on the individual studies each week. This is something which I pointed out as a personal weakness at the start of the module, and so I am happy that I feel I have improved on this.

I also feel that I have been able to develop some of the strengths which I identified within myself at the start of the module, I feel especially more flexible through the different stretches and warm ups I have learned. This was also one of my goals for the module, as well as being able to remember some of the stretches, which I have also done by performing these on a routine basis. However, I have not been able to learn which areas of the body are worked on through these different stretches, but I have noticed overall that my body feels a lot fitter and able to move in a more liberated way.

As an optional module for Semester 1 of my second year of BA (Hons) Performance, I have selected to study contemporary dance, I hope that I will be able to enjoy that module in the same way I have movement, and I hope to adopt all of the strategies I have used in movement in that module also.
