While participating in YYoga's, "30 Days to Reconnect" challenge, I had this idea to take random quotations from each class and turn them into a dance. I would turn on Quick Time Player audio recording and press play on the YYoga video in a random spot. I saved all of the audio clips and turned them into one long recording in IMovie. Using the words as stimuli for my movements, I played around until things started to settle. I definitely could have spent more time on the dance but I enjoyed the exercise of it and see its value as an activity for my students. They could collect random quotations from a show, teacher, parent or whatever they are interested in.
