Ballet Evaluation

Concerning my application during the ballet rehearsals, I was a bit off at the start, missed a few rehearsals the first week, but got back on track and attended every lesson afterwards, remaining focused at all time, doing my best during rehearsals and always being attentive to what was said. I managed to learn the choreography quite quickly, which is something I massively improved on.

Concerning my physical skills, again I think I really improved. As previously mentionned in my movement memory; but also my posture, technique, coordination, timing and accuracy. I feel like I was able to demonstrate proper ballet technique, focusing on my turn out, port de bras and overall coordination. That being said, I thought my performance lacked of use of space a lot, which I didn't realise until watching the video. I also think I lacked of balance and control a few times, especially towards the end pirouette.

Finally concerning my interpretive skills, I think this is what I need to most work on. I thought my performance was technically alright, but lacked massively of interpretation and was really flat. I think what I'm missing is confidence to actually try putting more into the choreography than just the moves.
