What you’ll learn
I can use dynamics to add meaning, excitement or tension to my choreography.
Key learning points
- Move: interpreting a command statement into action requires precision and control.
- Think: deciding which changes to apply involves considering the options and selecting the best.
- Feel: controlling our feelings if things do not succeed the first time requires self-discipline.

Words to know

- frequency
- how often something occurs
- power
- the force of effort applied to an action
Common mistakes
If working with a partner, you should always face them.
It can be helpful to face the people you are working with when you are deciding upon the actions you will perform. However, once you have created the action content, you can use different formations and arrangements to make the work more interesting.
For parents, carers and teachers
- The tone of voice used when announcing the command statements will convey a sense of the dynamics. By making the statements sharp, forceful and abrupt the pupils will echo this in their work.
