So.. What I’ve been doing so far (since last Fri

So.. What I’ve been doing so far (since last Friday, 23rd October):

1. meditating more (nothing special, just laying down with a timer for 24 minutes and letting thoughts flow - about 20 minutes in I can feel myself start to relax) it takes a bit of time 😅 but I really have a better day when I do it!

2. working with my feet (I have a little 5-minute foot movement routine that I have started doing a few times a week, just to keep my ankles strong and moveable for TaeKwonDo and ballet/pointe work!)

4. re-adding @staceynemours flexibility courses, trying to keep at it at least a few times a week (started last Friday)

I notice the biggest benefits overall when I do all 3 things in a row (meditate - feet - Stacey’s videos) so that’s what I’ll be doing if at all possible 💛

So far I did:
- ‘flexibility for dancers held back by tightness’ (Friday)
- ‘pre-pro to pro’ (Monday)
- ‘flexibility at any age’ (Wednesday)

I am mixing videos from all 3 online course packs 😊

I haven’t been taking before/after pictures on the first 2 days, as it was already dark, but I hope to get to do at least one daytime session per week so I can take pics

Below are the results of the ‘flexibility at any age’ session from yesterday (it doesn’t focus on splits, but I was curious and wanted to test them just in case)

What surprised me most was the huge difference in hamstring/lower back flexibility - I think this is the deepest I’ve ever been 😱

PS: This particular course is about 1h20 minutes.

You can try a 15 minute excerpt from it at www.gum.co/flexibility for a small donation (5€ or more) which will go in full to @dance4children 🤗

Soo.. I’ve finally gotten back into a rhythm working with @staceynemour ‘s amazing online flexibility courses.

I’m so glad they exist 🤗

As the world gets more rigid, we have to become more flexible..

This is what I wrote in my journal to keep me motivated, and so far it works.. it feels true.

Everything is connected.

I’ll be sharing my updates here, as well as on my blog at www.joyofmovement.de (see link in @joyofmovementblog bio, and go to tab ‘flexibility’) 💛

Fanveil Combo 4/4 - Fan Flutters 🥰 from my late

Fanveil Combo 4/4 - Fan Flutters 🥰 from my latest Online Workshop 😍

We’ll use double open fans for this one 🔥🔥🔥

Bonus tips!
🔥 Practise opening the fans to 180 degrees (use that pinkie/ring finger!)
🔥Rotate the lower arm for easier flutters
🔥Keep the ‘back spine’ (pinkie side) connected to your lower arm for more control & flow
🔥 Elbows up!
🔥 Plié to smoothen your transition between turning directions
🔥Add some shimmies to the mix!

Enjoy, and feel free to share!

Fanveil Combo 3/4 - Tip/Poi Grip 🥰 from my late

Fanveil Combo 3/4 - Tip/Poi Grip 🥰 from my latest Online Workshop 😍

This one REALLY feels like dancing with flames 🔥🔥🔥

Bonus tips!
🔥 Practise ‘flipping your grip’ from normal fan holding to the pinch you see in the video
🔥 The ‘silk side’ will be pointing TOWARDS you for the combo, so I had to walk my fingers around the edge of the spines before starting
🔥 Relax your wrists and fingers!
🔥 Let the weight of the fan give you momentum and guide your movements, it takes a bit of courage at first, but once the fans start flowing you’ll want to keep going forever 🥳💜🔥✨
🔥Try variations of an overhead figure 8 (or ‘half corkscrew’ in poi terms) for fabulous one handed fan effects, and move your upper body with it to make it ‘dance’
🔥 Try this with longer silks for extra fabulous flow
🔥 A ‘diagonal front lean’ with your weight on the audience leg that’s out in front (turn it out!) works really well for the two handed figure 8
🔥Try out all your favorite dance moves, and see how (if!) they harmonize with the fans

Enjoy, and feel free to share!

Fanveil Combo 2/4!🔥’The Wrap’ 🥰 Bonus t

Fanveil Combo 2/4!🔥’The Wrap’ 🥰

Bonus tips for this one!
🔥 This wrap can be used as an entrance (as I did for the @dance4children show! see the ‘red fans’ in my youtube channel www.youtube.com/khalida) so if the ‘wrapping’ feel tricky you can simply prep it backstage
🔥 Ideally, tuck the fan far anough to the side so it is ‘hidden’ when viewed from the back, covered by the silk of the second fan, but not so far that you’ll see it from the front - experiment!
🔥 Also try this combo with extra long silks for even more flowy effects ✨
🔥 For one handed fan work: mind the ‘free arm’ - move it, wrap it around yourself, pose it, trace the veil.. all good, as long as it stays ‘alive’ (or at least out of the way, elegantly 😅)
🔥 Try some turns, flutters, figure 8s and flourishes!
🔥One handed fan work will leave you more headspace actually DANCE, so do it :)
🔥Try out all your favorite dance moves, and see how (if!) they harmonize with the fans

Fanveil Combo time! Combo 1/4 Tips to make it feel

Fanveil Combo time! Combo 1/4
Tips to make it feel like ‘dance’:

🔥 allow your upper body to twist and tilt to drive your movements, it will relax your arms and make the fans move around you with more ease
🔥 keep breathing :) it really makes a difference, especially once your arms move overhead
🔥 mind your lines in each position: use turn out, point them toes, lengthen your body.. make a habit of practising all your moves this way and see the magic happen
🔥don’t be afraid to take up space! work that big wheel and look up, expand!
🔥be sure to mind the furniture/pets :)

Looking for the Light ✨

I feel very lucky I got to collaborate not one, but two times with the fantastic @artelster, even in this crazy year.

I love how these pictures always turn out with a slightly unexpected twist, a touch of lightness and darkness at the same time time.

Somehow nudging me to ‘see’ more deeply.

This shoot in particular we had to get slightly creative and ‘chase the light’ quite literally.

Use every lumen.

No full equipment there, so we simply worked with whatever was available.. A bit of daylight, one lamp, clever angles, and adjustments.

More to follow soon.

Go follow @artelster and @elster_ninkheg - and book a shoot with her, when possible, if you can ✨

I want to see even more pictures of her with dancers in the future 🤓

Fan veil Tips - Part 3 💕 It felt incomplete to

Fan flutters.. how to keep them going, without fee

Fan flutters.. how to keep them going, without feeling like your arms are falling off? 😱

💪🏻 Practice! Like with any movement, we tend to use a bit too much power when a movement is still new. This will ease up over time.
💪🏻 In relation to that, working on your posture and upper body strength (see my 6 day ‘One Push Up Challenge - link in bio!) will help you ‘economize’ and feel your movements.
💪🏻 Make sure your fan is opened to a full 180 degrees (use that pinkie!)
💪🏻 Connect the inner fan spine to your lower arm
💪🏻 use lower arm rotation for the fan flutter (easier than moving the shoulders/wrists)
💪🏻 Loosening your fan ‘grip’ a bit (while still opening it fully - AND not letting the fan fly away 🤓 see my latest FB live session for a demo!) also helps to move your arms more freely

Enjoy, and feel free to share!
