#WM06D - Lester Horton Dance Technique

[Luna398]

I hate laterals o.e but they really work your core :3 I  do a similar warm up at BTM

[ilovebebe88]

I did that this summer :))

Hm, Seems very repetitive if you ask me,

What really is amazing though is how these dancers always have

flat backs and never miss One.!

Lots and lootsss of practice.

Ouch!

What memories I was under scholarship to Lester in LA at 10 years old. Studied with him for over two years. My sister went into the Dance Company at 13 years old. We had Alvin, Jimmy Truitt, Carmen De Lavadade, Bella Lewitsky (as a teacher as well) Larry Maldanato, etc. I remember them all and most of all Lester. He was a strong force. Lena Horne passed tonight and that brought me here as she sponsored my scholarship. The movement is perfectly correct I am going through it with this video

have you considered writing to family members for support. we do it all of the time when we want to go on missions at my church, you should consider it.
