myriad ways. They may stay in
one place, or they may travel
from one place to another. They

size, and pathways of their
movements.
TIME The keyword for the element of
time is When? Human movement
is naturally rhythmic.
in the broad sense that we
alternate activity and rest. Breath
and waves are examples of
rhythms
ENERGY Energy is about how the
movement happens. Choices
about energy include variations
in movement flow and the use of
force, tension, and weight. An
arm gesture might be free
flowing or easily stopped, and it
may be powerful or gentle, tight,
or loose, heavy or light.
A dancer may step into an
arabesque position with a sharp,
percussive attack or with light,
flowing ease.
