Going to See Vladimir

Last Monday, i went to see Vladimir. I saw him teach a two hour ballet and a rehearsal to a dance he was creating, which i will see sometime in march. It was AMASING!!!!!!!!!! He is such a good teacher. His philosophy is, since their college students, bad habits are like ingrained since they started dancing. So Vladimir tells them their correction, and makes them do it until they get it right. He corrects them every time the do it wrong. He thinks of it as planting a seed in their brain, when he tells them what they need to correct. Then each time he tells them their doing it wrong he is watering the seed, until it blossom or the bad habit goes away.
    He is so creative!! For the rehearsal he did this really modern crazy dance. The moves were really different. But in he end when they did it wit music. It looked good.
