This is my Dance As Research on the topic of Hip Hop Dance and Disability. My interpretation is me dancing in a chair, not moving my legs while watching the Hip Hop Old School Dictionary https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SqB6zWQaWV0&list=PL7sbTg36K-Uo_2uiK9-oYi_17jbwJGdF9&index=2&t=23s
This connects to my research topic because I am putting myself in the shoes of a person who is physically unable to move a part of their body. I can never fully understand how someone with a physical disability may feel when dancing watching a video of an able bodied person so I am hoping this is not offensive, just a way for me to learn. As you can see, I use a lot of facial expression in my video. That came naturally. I use my arms, shoulders, and chest to emphasize all of the dance moves I incorporate into my video. I learned that when one body part is not being used, you can put a lot more expression into other parts of your body or facial expressions to create something new and different.
