GCSE and A level dance students enjoyed a morning of contact contemporary work with James Cousins Dance company on Thursday 20 October.
James Cousins Dance Company has a mission to enrich peoples' lives through dance, and they state, "Our interest in the world motivates us to bring together creative and diverse teams who widen our work's perspective, who passionately give voice to the underrepresented, and who nurture communities, cultivate young talent and connect to our audience."
In line with the GCSE and A level syllabi the pupils engaged with a variety of partner and contact ideas, and contemporary dance exercises that focus on one of the repertoires they study.
Some of the lifts got pupils thinking a different way to their usual focus when performing partner work and enabled them to explore new and exciting ways to lift one another which led to finding new content for their own choreography.
