Our rehearsal focused on finishing our Matilda dance piece so that the next rehearsal could address weaker parts. We ensured everyone's ideas were incorporated and the theme was maintained. My focus was on improving coordination, which I knew was a weakness. We chose to perform the "Revolting Children" dance because we all preferred it and it gave everyone the same character. We ran through the dance with the music to see if it fit, shortening parts that ran long. We reviewed our performance and improved characterization, lifts, facial expressions, and timing to make the dance cleaner. Constructive criticism helped without hurt feelings, and I was able to give input that improved the dance.
