Towards a new form of choreography

Innovating with new concepts and ideas is the only way to stay afloat in the highly competitive sector called performing arts. When you sign up with a Ballroom Dance Studio New York City will certainly provide you a different fare that is so diverse than you can ever imagine.

Recently, a leading choreographer led his students through to explore the concept of pressing and pushing at any time, when sitting or standing, with different fingers. He tried to strengthen their third finger, which helped them when playing Bach on the Piano. But down the years afterwards, the students became more aware of the different power, quality, and the personality of each and every finger.

In eastern countries and particularly in India, China and Japan, people seem to know more about this approach than in the west. In the eastern culture and also in Africa and the West Indies fingers and hands are used in a particular pattern language in certain forms of dance,. Because of this growing awareness, actors and dancers now sense the difference by testing their own fingers on the floor or against a wall, by leaning a little on it sometimes, to feel different materials.

Finally, they lead each other out on to the floor space, first with the first finger, then with the second, then perhaps with the first and second together (which gives tremendous strength of action), with the gently, sympathetic third finger. Here the quality of the whole dance is totally altered like never before.
