Seven Devils - Choreography Notes

Seven Devils Aerial Silks – Choreography Notes * Start in full plie on demi pointe, on forced arch, looking to the right (side) * When music starts, look to the front, come out of plie with isolating chest rotations, (use your eyes), (connect to the audience). * Emphasise all of your movements and make all of your movements as intricate and precise as possible as the audience may be looking at a very small object (the aerial artist: you) * When turning with the tissue, use as much force with your arms as possible. Turn on the spot, do not move your feet too much outwards as it may get caught up with the tissue and may ruin the affect of the spin and pull us out of the artistry of the routine. * Strong fast climbs, milk every movement to create maximum affect. * The split inversion when the beat comes in has to be exactly on the beat and strong and powerful to create maximum affect of the skill. * Every movement has to be dynamic with the music. * The wrapping of the apparatus is art. Try to make every preparation seamless and effortless to avoid noticing the mechanics of the routine, which ultimately takes us out of the performance. * Stretched legs and pointed toes!! Noticeable incorrect technique once again has us noticing the flaws of the act and takes us out of the performance. * Connect to not just the front row, but the entire auditorium. Make an arm movement not just for one person, but every person for the whole audience to feel and understand the
