Roll With Me (Rock With Me)

Thursday.

3:00 PM
Tech rehearsal at Ashé.

6:00 PM
Next door to Ashé, Company teaches a class for the Sisters Making A Change. It’s half-made up on the spot—we pair off and all teach a part (except for Christian, who comes up with an across-the-floor phrase to teach and then goes home to nurse his illness). Sonia and James start off with a warmup, and then Cat and Jess teach the across-the-floor, part by part. Finally, Hannah (and the entire company, really) demo and help teach a segment of Falling Sun, Wanting Moon while Christal coaches, alternately cajoling and pushing the women to move. It’s a lot of the same faces as Tuesday, and some new ones—and oddly, the class divides by age, with the youngest kids in the front and in the back of the class, a group of older ladies laughing and following along, teasing each other while they do.
