Black Swan: The Shadow

With Sabina Storberg

From Black Swan

Welcome to the second class of the Black Swan Series, called "The Shadow". In this class, you will practice mimicking a shadow, moving slowly and gracefully from side to side.

Starting where the last class ended, this session focuses on a slow, creeping rise from the floor. You will practice a movement that includes bringing the sword behind you like a block. You will also learn a movement that involves moving the hands as if doing a double sword flower. 

The class features sequences of:
  • A reverse outside flower
  • Striking down
  • Bringing the sword behind your back as you lower your body
  • A reverse "ninja" move done three times
  • This class also introduces the "snake charmer" movement. You will transition into the snake charmer while moving from one lunge to another. The session culminates in a series of three kicks.

If you practice both classes in the series together, you will have one long, choreographed flow. You are encouraged to slow down the video and practice the movements repeatedly.
