BEST OF
SOLO by Silke Schuster

insist on the moments where you shake, stay there

keep this hand up for a while and once you have established the image, then go for a new image

and another movement, and only when this is finished another one can start

how can you technically fix your pelvic floor - hip socket – leg relation and move the rest

hands! if you want to put them down, how can you do it differently

stay stay stay, don’t correct, insist on the things, you can stay there if it is difficult, don’t give up

it’s not about achieving, it’s about finding strategies

movement being made of attention, intention, decision, precision

failure and process

in space in time in thought

each precision implies a failure, you will never be as precise as you think, and you can practice to be precise, and that’s the beautiful frustration of training, accept it and behave accordingly

one thing is to keep the shape, another possibility is to find the direction your body wants to go

release your shoulders, especially the connection between your clavicle and scapula in front and then the part of the spine in between the shoulder blades and there for the muscles around

so whatever happens in the end of thoracic spine observe how it influences c7 and all the way up to the atlas-axis connection and therefore how it move the head without you moving the head

take care that you don’t start doing to many things at the same time

first you move the eyes, then you move the head

think of the pauses, they are more important than the fact of you succeeding

don’t fall into a form

from simple to more complex

constantly have alert palms

the space between your fingers, how they connect to wrists, elbow, shoulder blades, back of the eyes, torso, pelvis, floor through the feet, the ankle, and then back, through your knees

take time

how are you leaving the audience

keep the position and start exploring how you can change the perspective for the audience and you will start turning the space

imagine a line that is prolonged

a line that is your direction

never going into space, space is always coming to you
