The legendary Peggy Lyman teaching advanced Graham technique ... OMG! This is like a dream. Fantastic class. Almost all the Graham technique I've learned from the Internet. This class is by far the best. A huge thank you and warm wishes to Peggy Lyman from a humble Graham devotee in Sri Lanka. You were unforgettable in "Lamentations!"
I've always wanted to tak class with Peggy Lyman, but i never got around to it 😢, but i absolutely loved my classes with Susan Kakuchi, Kevin Predmore, Jacqulyn Bulglisi, and Kazuko Hirabayashi at The Ailey School during 1999-2003. The amount of information i learned. Graham technique is my favorite Dance technique. The levels and elements are vast and outstanding! ❤❤❤❤
What a wonderful teacher! I studied Dance and Drama at Dartington College of Arts in the UK at the end of the 1960s. Our teacher was the fabulous Flora Cushman, and i don't think we realised how privileged we were. The tution was all free in those days too! Warching this, I can feel every movement, right diwn to how the floor used to hurt the tops of my feet on some of the floor exercises! Best wishes to all dancers everywhere!
Love this. Quite doable too. Can’t get out at the moment, as everyone else. This is great. Also well paced. Not too fast, just right. I always feel that going slower is better for strengthening than speeding along.
Thank you so much to share all this class, interviews and everyhing about Graham world. It's being a gift in this horrible moment that we are living. Mil gracias desde Sevilla (Spain)
Thank you so much for sharing your process with these extraordinary artists! Their power permeates my soul. Such a rich empowering essence in this time of vulnerability.
What an incredible gift of light in these dark times. The technique in all its glory! The music is magnificent, too. I studied Graham technique in my 20’s with Dance June Lewis in New York, then in my 40’s by auditing with the dance department at Temple University where I now live in Philadelphia, then with Jeanne Ruddy Dance Company, and most recently (last year in my late 50’s) with Jennifer Binford Johnson at Kun-Yang Lin’s dance studio. As an adult amateur, it’s nearly impossible for me to find classes and resources that help me to learn. And yet, I still want to recapture my skills and progress in this technique that speaks to me so deeply. I’ll try to work myself up to this.
so crazy to find this comment here! i’m currently studying for my BFA in dance at Temple and had my first experience learning graham technique here. i fell in love right away!
Hello Peggy is beautiful to be with you again! I loved taking the class listening to your words and refreshing the memories. You are always within me! Yours sincerely Adria
What a joy to see this! I have often longed for your classes and living in Italy hasn't made it any easier to come take them. Some good things do come out of terrible situations. Warmest regards to you and all the Graham community and thank you for posting this.
אני לא למדתי שלשיעור של מרתה גרהם קוראים אדוואנס(ed) גם לא ברמה הכי גבוהה של הטכניקה. לרמה של הבחינה הכי גבוהה של ה r.a.d קוראים אדוואנס זה נחמד לדעת בשנת 2021 דברים חדשים שלא ידעתי עליהם בשנות ה 80 . אצפה בשיעור בשלב מאוחר יותר... (30.5.2021)
שיעור מקסים הייתי רוצה את הווריאציה שבאמצע כתובה או שההדגמה שלה היא לא מול הקהל אלא עם גב לקהל כדי שיהיה קל יותר ללמוד אותה ולעקוב באופן מדוייק אחרי הכיוונים. אני תמיד לימדתי כשאני לפני התלמידות/ התלמידים שלי עם הגב אליהם ואחרי שהבינו ההדגמה שלי מולם - היא כמו ראי כלומר רגל ימין שלהם היא שמאל שלי וכו' אבל הלמידה היא תמיד עם הכיוון שלהם.

This is the most inspiring and fulfilling online dance class experience. I love it. It feels likes I am in the class with them even though I am at home. THANK YOU FOR SHARING THIS! ❤❤❤
@@marthagrahamdancecompany What brand of gray unitard is she wearing? I have worn, rehearsed and danced in spandex/lycra unitards before, and I have seen a unitard in that style/cut before?
😂 Interesting! I saw the Graham Company at BAM, excited to see Maple Leaf Rag. The three (4?) other pieces on the program that preceded it were sooooo solemn, and...dreary. The 3rd piece was described in the program as '...a dance of sorrow...' and I had to chuckle because they all were sorrowful.
Very tortured, tight and held-in. Painful looking! My hips hurt looking at this. Dancers are strong. Shapes are dated. Perhaps evolve the core technique to incorporate more release? It seems like the logical conclusion

I mean, contraction is the main principle of graham's technique
