I really enjoyed this video. It really provided great examples as we have learned in class to express ideas and thoughts through movement. Specifically focusing on the "Bodystorming" activity, it seemed to really make the students think outside of the box. To think critically. The way you had described "Bodystorming" as the movement form of "Brainstorming" was such a clear way of representing the activity. I really liked how the students had the opportunity to think through movement and share their ideas through movement. Incorporating the elements of dance was so beneficial to create discussion and ideas through movement. - commentary from a pre-service candidate
