Tuesday 22nd August 2017 - Jazz Express Class @ SDC & Preview of What's On @ the MCA







Jam packed day today.

I was too lazy to do the 11 am - 12.30 pm Beginner Contemporary dance class at SDC today but did do the Jazz Express class from 12.30 pm - 1.30 pm today.

After watching the last 15 minutes or so of the Beginner Contemporary class I made a note in my diary to do it in 2 weeks time to see if I liked it. It did not look like a beginner class but then again I have never done a Contemporary class only Lyrical and it was always towards an elementary level class which was a lot more "brutal". Lots of floorwork tends to be involved in both Lyrical and Contemporary dance classes. Note to self - Don't forget to pack the knee pads for class again!

Express Jazz is called this for a reason. An intensive hour long class with lots of stretching and warming up before a dance routine put together really quickly rather then sections of a dance routine practised to different pieces of music eliminating the overthinking of a dance routine spread over 1.5 hours.

Easy class but very a cardio workout due to shorter period of class time.

Quick shower and off to the MCA.

TBC.

I am so behind in my blogging.

My whole intention of visiting the MCA was solely to see the Jenny Watson exhibition.

After cloaking my backpack, I asked what was on today and was lucky to get a sneak peep of 2 new exhibitions not opening to the public until tomorrow. Ah the perks of being a MCA member!

Between 11 am and 3 pm today the new Primavera Young Australian Artists and the Hilarie Mais exhibitions were open to a members only preview before opening to the general public. I managed to arrive just in time to view both exhibitions before I went to the 3rd floor to see the Jenny Watson exhibition.
