Beatfreeks Summer Academies: Day 3

Yesterday was DAY 3 of the Beatfreeks Academies and we can’t wait till Friday to showcase what we have been working on.

Dance

Today the dance group got to perfect and add more steps into the dance routines they had learnt at the start of the week. They were joined by members of the Saintz dance crew who helped out on the teaching of the routine.

They made sure they went through the steps of the dance moves they learnt so the new members of the group could learn them, as through the week they have been getting new members joining in on their lessons.

Today they focused also on getting into character when performing, as it will bring them out their shells when on stage. This is a tip that can be used in any form of creative arts that has to be showcased to a group of people, as nerves can always get the best of us.

To be able to watch their amazing performance, don’t forget to buy tickets to STAMP! in which the work that has been carried out throughout this week will be showcased there.

Poetry

When speaking with the poetry group, they explained to me about how they have been working on their poems and collaborating with each other. They mentioned how it was hard having to combine the poems they had created in order to make an overall piece that portrayed what they all felt about in the topic of WHO AM I?

They spoke about how each of them had different themes, different feelings but when mixed together to make their collaboration piece they all felt the same. Even with their different cultures and beliefs, they all felt as if they had something in common and that they could relate to what each other mentioned on their poem. 

The said how having Jaden and Amerah as their facilitators had been an amazing experience. They said that they loved how they pushed them to do work and the artistic freedom that they got when working with them.
