Re: [Tower Ravens] Dance/dancers actions from EGM

Hi all, Rachel will be sending through the minutes from Monday's discussion but there are a couple of fairly urgent action points relating to the dance/dancers: 1) We decided that our second dance would be a 'round' (suitable for festivals), fast and complex (suitable for DERT) dance. We're going to try out a variety of figures and then see what fits together well. I'd particularly like to try and create new figures, or at least new variations on existing figures, for this dance. Please can you all have a think about figures you'd like to try out for this dance and a) email me a video of another team doing the figure or b) come prepared to teach the figure! 2) We decided that some people should learn new positions. If you weren't there on Monday can you let me know which, if any, new positions you'd be happy to try on the Julibee (nee DERT) dance and which positions you'd be interested in learning the second dance from? Can you also let me know whether you'd like to have a go at helping with teaching, tumbling, playing music or being a character? Please note that's it's not compulsory to learn a new position - if you want to stick with your original position in both dances that's fine! If you can send me your thoughts to these two points by the weekend that would really help me to plan the next practices. In general I think I'd like to split the practices so that the first half we have 2 sets working on the Jubilee dance - learning new positions and the tidying up points we implemented for DERT - and we spend the second half working together on finding figures for the second dance.
