HELLO 105! <3


How's your 1st school week? Haha. Ohkay I haven't updated for a HECK OF A LONG TIME so I shall do so now. :D


1. Gym Assessment


Okay so we haven't learnt handstands & cartwheels yet. BUT THIS IS JUST TO MAKE YOU STRESSED HAHA. :D


The way I shall post it is WHAT SECTION > COMPONENT > {CRITERIA.} 4/3/2/1


Choreography > THEME AND MUSIC > {Theme selected and rhythm of song is appropriate to routine.} If you got a 4 (which is VERY GOOD) your music and theme are very appropriate. If you got a 3 (which is GOOD) your music and theme re quite appropriate but could have been better. If you got a 2 (which is AVERAGE) the music you chose if somewhat appropriate and synchronizes with the theme. If you got a 1 (which is LOUSY haha joking) the theme and music do not match at all.


Choreography > MOVEMENT CONCEPTS > { Pathways, direction, space - personal and spatial, speed - fast or slow, weight - heavy or light} If you got a 4 you have observed all movement concepts. If you got a 3 you have observed 3-4 movement concepts. If you got a 2 you have observed only 2-3 movement concepts. If you got a 1 you have observed a measly 1-2 movement concepts.


<-- Okay from here on the grading system changes. The higher your mark the more you observe or execute the component. -->

Skills > LEAPS AND JUMPS > { Movement is controlled, coordinated and synchrony with group. Weight transfer is evident. Execution is confident and body poised. Good form and in control. A minimum of 2 leaps / jumps is included in the routine. }

When doing forward or egg roll, body is kept rounded throughout the roll, with knees and elbows tucked in close to body. Able to come out of the roll in a controlled manner and shows confidence. }


Skills > BALANCES > { Able to hold onto balance for @ least 3 sec. Balances can include tripod stand, candle stand, headstand, angled headstand, reverse handstand and/or handstand. Able to come out of balance in a controlled manner. }


Skills > AGILITIES (to be confirmed) > { During execution of cartwheel, transfer of weight from one spot to to another is evident. Correct movement order: hand, hand, foot, foot. Cartwheel is in a straight line. Hands and legs straight, controlled and strong. Body returns to standing position facing the direction of takeoff. Comes out of cartwheel in a controlled motion. }
