I had the first of 4 session on academic skills with the first yr performing art students today that focused on their physical preparation with regards to a warm up. I have always started with the practice of release. What I did was introduce them to some practical techniques regarding the phenomenal encounter of release, which I have broken down into 3 bits1 The release that is a result of letting go, concerning one's breath after breathing in; and how it affects the quality of effort and…See More
