Experiment
What would happen if we broke down the structure / order of the dance?
How will that effect the flow?
How will our memory work?
Will we be more conscious of what we are doing?
Will I need to let my parter lead me more? More trust if less anticipation?

Task:

1. Select 6 steps from a Jive
2. List them in order using names / terminology and number them 1-6
3. Roll a die and note down the outcome
4. Repeat step 3 a couple of times
5. Rewrite steps in new order using step names / terminology
6. Dance the re-constructed Jive
7. Describe experience (use questions from above)

Jive first 6 steps

1. Basic Turn
2. Follow the Leader
3. American Swing
4. Bump
5. The ‘1-2’
6. Windmill + Spanish Arms

3 - 1 - 6 - 2 - 4 - 2
