A formation is the shape dancers move within. You will perform as a troupe in the Circus. Beginning in one large group, your teacher will call out a formation and a character. You must go into the space, create a part of the formation and freeze in character until the shape is established. It might be a circle formation, facing inwards as a contortionist. Or possibly a triangle formation, facing forwards as a juggler. Challenges: Spilt into 2 or 3 smaller groups and see who can achieve the shape more quickly and quietly. Try building in additional shapes and characters.
