“I am sincerely trying now to create a dance technique based entirely upon corrective exercises, created with a knowledge of human anatomy; a technique which will correct physical faults and prepare a dancer for any type of dancing he may wish to follow; a technique having all the basic movements which govern the actions of the body; combined with a knowledge of the origin of movement and a sense of artistic design.”
Thank you!!!!
Was amazingggg
Do more!!!
Thank you for this video. Very helpful. Please consider making more!
Fernando is an EXCELLENT teacher. This video made me work !! 😄. I love 💕 not only his teaching method, but the presentation! The drum reminded me of an African dance class I took years ago.
I will continue learning from him as long as he makes these videos !!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Thank you for posting this! I only just started taking class with you at Ailey when NYC closed, and your class was the last time I was in an actual dance studio. I’m so glad you made this video, and I look forward to seeing you again in person one day ... soon, I hope! I hope you are well.
Thank you Fernando for posting this video! I miss taking class with you but this is wonderful in the meantime. I hope you are doing well!! -Isha
Thank You so much Fernando. I used to love Horton and will get myself into it again. I love the Tempo, good explaining and even perfect for older Dancers like me to get back on my legs. Greetings from Berlin ;-)
Thank you for this!!!!! I haven't done Horton in YEARS. This is a great reintroduction. I think this will help me with my sciatica issues.
This class is INCREDIBLE!!!! So incredibly fun and masterfully taught and edited. This content also transitions really well into a living room or bedroom. THANK YOU!
Fantastic class to a musical beat!
First, Fernando, thank for for generously posting this free class to CZcams!
For those curious about this class: It is absolutely wonderful and absolutely NOT for absolute beginners. I haven't danced in years and my body kinda remembers what to do. I still found this class a little challenging. If you have no experience in dance, I suggest finding a BASIC dance foundations class before attempting this one. All that being said, I loved it and will absolutely be back!
Ditto to all of that :-)
and in particular: 'not ...if you have no experience in dance'.
Some of the movement does require a fair degree of core strength, internal and comprehensive body awareness. Without an instructor to catch if you are misplacing, it could be tricky.
Agree! This is beginner Horton level, but not regular beginner dance level :) Thank you, Fernando, for this great quick training session!
What is this technique helping with exactly? It looks like a lot of stretching.. is this just making you more aware of your posing and to loosen you up? Is it mainly for contemporary and ballet or does it help with any dance like hiphop?
@@puccarts This sort of warmup routine is appropriate for modern dance. Lots of floor work and unusual movement in that style. Ballet warmup is usually barre and then maybe some center stretching. Depends on who your teacher is. Barre is universal, but other than that, it's up to the teacher.
not fair.....this is way easier than the in-person class you held at the Ailey extension center. This one i can do!!. Yes...even at 57.....thank you Fernando. Nice guy and patient teacher and passionate dancer. Great to see you haven't stopped in person as well. Glad you chose Steps on Broadway.
George, come and take the class again 🤩
Very very good teaching Horton Technique Beginners. thank you very much Fernando !
I love this video ! Your instruction and demos are great, so easy to follow. It's a joy to do your class. I took your class at Ailey whenever I could and always enjoyed them. Adele told me you posted this on line, I'm so happy she did. I look forward to the day we can meet again in NYC.
Thanks for this... Been needing to get back into a Horton class.
Fernando Carrillo brings the joy of dance to students through this teaching. He is a terrific, inspiring, soul-satisfying teacher of dance. Enjoy.
Amazing, loved it . Thank you !
This is brilliant. Currently no one teaching Horton in my area. I appreciate you!
Thank you for posting this video on youtube Fernando. Your class was excellent. Nice pace to follow along with
I wanted to try out a horton technique class for beginners but when I tried to book there was a small print that said it wasn't suitable for people without prior dance experience. I was disheartened but then found your class here. Thank you! It was difficult but fun and I can't wait to do more and watch my strength and gracefulness increase with time:)
So wonderful. The sound is so clear, the words, the music, thank you!!
I absolutely LOVE THIS CLASS!!! Thank you again for putting this out here during this pandemic! I has truly been a lifesaver! Love you!
Thank you! This is great!
Really great class, thank you for the very clear instruction and modeling!
Thank you for posting this Fernando! You are not only an incredible teacher and dancer but you're also a wonderful person. While it has been a few years (thank you, Covid) since I had he opportunity to dance with you in person, I still carry two lessons from you with me always - preparation and discipline. Such important qualities for anyone to master regardless of how well they may dance.
This video is SO WELL DONE! Bravo! 👏 Thank you for sharing! 🙏❤️🙏
OPEN! UP! And RAIIIIN! ☔️ Lol
Thank you Mr. Fernando!! I was your student at the Ailey School … Summer Junior Division 2016.
Fernando how are you! So happy that Soara told me about this video. Miss your classes so much. I hope you are well and healthy. 💕💕Adele
Miss you!!!
I just did your class again.At the end I gave a bow and clapped my hands on the ground in gratitude. Did you hear it?
I hope you do the next level. I’ve done it 3 days in a row and found I am sore in places I thought I wouldn’t be I hadn’t dance in 3 years and noticed my balance needed help Can’t wait for the next level Thx u
I do it every day My balance improving and I can rotate on one foot in a circle in the video
Please do a part 2 Waiting with anticipation
amazing!
I love this thank you!!
Love this thank you!
This was fantastic.
Thanks so much for producing (much obliged Claudia and Miguel!) and posting:
a lot it so familiar from jazz classes incorporating modern syllabi -
for a more technical warmup -
but then it was mixed in with Graham and Limon, too.
So it is lovely to work this technique in its pure form following your clear and unfussy instruction.
(Very pleasant teaching voice, too, BTW.)
Lo
Cool, really perfect..
thank you ! it was awesome i had so much fun, even if i couldn't do everything for now!
Such a great class!! Would definitely pay for more classes like this :)
Thank you!
Excellent class. You are a great teacher. Please once in a while post another 35 min video, because I don't live in the USA to take live classes with you. Thank you for sharing!
Thank you!!!!!
I haven't danced in 12 years, and I'd forgotten how much I loved Horton.
Wow!!! Thanks! This is what I was surching for... :)
My body is loving this!! Horton is one of my favourites!! Thanks do much Fernando. I will be looking forward to more🙌🏽♥️
Awesome class. I've never done Horton before, thank you!
Nice music!
Will there be any next-level video? I really enjoyed this one!
♥️♥️♥️
I was a student of Ernestine Stodelle and she, I thought, was influenced by Doris Humphrey, but much of what I see you doing is Horton which is so familiar to me as a Stodelle dancer. I assume she also was influenced by Horton, a contemporary. Thank you.
What is the album you are using? I love the drums
Kevin Sport ..... it is at the end of the video
why does modern dance uses this kind of music?
We enjoy the Horton Technique to percussion or piano. You can use any types of music for modern dance. There is no rule.
Incredible Work!🪃🔹🌟⚡🎶🌿⚽🎽
Lawd knows I was dyingggg, I love dancing but have never tried anything like this 🥲 I’m 23 mins in 🎉
Thank you!
