From memory of weight to form.. The mind would try and picture what had happened in our bodies, but the muscles would not easily recreate a position, momentum, timing, sequence... We soon realised that small phrases were easier to remember, rehearse, rethink and reshape than isolated moments.

Improvisations thus lead us towards the creation of phrases, different in rhythm, dynamics, "weight management"... (Lifts, leans, shufflings, rolls, ledges etc...) When mental/muscular memory of the improvisations was not enough we had to fill in the gaps with "created improvisation", conscious, intellect-directed paths formed. However, most of the times the weight would find its way on its own, discovering our short sequences of movements. These sequences were not yet linked together, but pertinent to the concepts of speed, weight, sharing and interplay.
