Initiations
This refers to how you start a movement.
- Fast-slows: Start off fast and perform the rest of the move slower. This adds a little extra groove.
- Launch: Use your whole body. It adds a feeling of weight.
- Release: Imagine your body unfreezing from the starting pose so that you can finally move around freely.
- Pop: Use muscle contraction at the beginning and then quickly relax your muscles. This adds a sharp and snappy start.
Sources of initiation: It is important to figure out, which body part initiates a dance move: This could be basically any body part, such as your arms, legs, chin, knee, hip or neck.
