FYF CHALLENGE #22: DANCING YOUR DESCENT

LAUNCHED: APRIL 24, 2015

THE PROMPT:

Firstly, I want to thank the talent that is Alloy Images for their beautiful imagery used above.

Also, thank you to Drusilla Ray and Iris Sparrow, my freestyle sisters on the West Coast, for being poster babes for this next #FYFChallenge!

I’ve been sitting on this one for awhile, and I figured now is as good as time as any for the partner challenge to our ever popular #DANCINGYOURCLIMB movement from last year!!! This concept is simple, and is the counter exercise for beauti-fying your climbing movement. Now, take the time to play with the descent, how to let your body sink, fall, glide, or drop down the pole, or off the pole into your grounded dance. There are SO may opportunities for descending dance and transitional movement, or even narrative or emotional exploration that has you moving downward – what can you visually or emotionally communicate with this idea? I cannot wait to see these entries!!!

As always, don’t forget to take your time, find your breath, and hear your music.
