Choreo/Improv Prompt:
Beginning at 2:00 in the music…
First 6 bars (or three 8 counts): dancers will improv (or pre-choreograph it if you're not comfortable with that) along the violin/string melody, matching the exact rhythms of the strings and remixing here and there.
On the 7th bar (or fourth 8 count), utilize drags/slides along the longer violin notes, then improv or create a 1 bar (4 count) transition step to a partner/group using all 8th notes - (1 and 2 and 3 and 4 and).
Partner improv exchange: you will either hold/groove first and improv/choreo 2nd or vice versa!
2 bars (one eight count) of improv, hold 2 bars/groove
1 bar (4 counts) improv, 1 bar hold / groove
1/2 bar (2 counts) improv, 1/2 bar hold/groove
1 bar (4 counts) note for note improv/choreo (with the violin)
We will set the last 2 bars (one 8 count) in studio :)
