REPERTORY/ Circles

Dancers A and B are partners and travel on parallel circular tracks.  Dancers C and D are partners and travel on parallel circular tracks different fro A and B. The four dancers carry their heads centered and do not look to the right or left.  When no one is in their vision they initiate movement.  When 1, 2, or 3 other dancers are in their vision, focused or peripheral, they copy they movement simultaneously. - Trisha Brown: Dance and Art in Dialogue, 1961-2001, Teicher, Hendel
