Yesterday was our first rehearsal for the holiday show, The Flying Nut. The theme of the acro dance piece I'm in is FIRE. Deena is choreographing with input from those of us who are in it, Kelsey, Morgan, Fallon, India, Roger and me. She wants to invoke the feeling of burning embers and dancing flames. We had fun yesterday climbing, rolling, crawling on and lifting each other in attempts to make different fire related shapes. We rehearsed right next to the trapeze group. Amy has created a multi-level trapeze, which I admit I'm a little sad not to get to work on. But since my interest in the intersection of dance and acro is a big part of what brought me to NECCA in the first place, FIRE is a good group for me to be in.
Today is Weds, not a school day, but the day of the week when I try to get as much time in at Members Only as possible. Went to the gym this morning and did cardio and weights for a while before heading over to NECCA at 10:30am. Did some stretching there, played on the German wheel, and did some handstands. Home now for lunch and dragging my feet about going back. Tired. But Micah and I have hand to hand acro lesson with Bill this afternoon, so that should be fun.
