Create: Produce something that focuses on movement. It could feature for example a dance, a fight (a duel, or perhaps the vast armies advancing across the plains, weather (the strike of lightning, the gentle roll of clouds), time (too fast, too slow). Perhaps the movement is organic or mechanical, aesthetic or utilitarian, sweeping or barely noticeable.

Squee: Tell us about a movement that takes your breath away, or even better, share a video of it. A dance performance, nature video, athletic feat... The kind of thing you never tire watching.


I may not create today as my MiL is visiting. She's having a nap atm, I'm not actually online and ignoring her.

For the squee. A few years back, along with the professionals from the show, the Candoco Dance Company performed on Strictly, and I remember being blown away watching them. As their Wikki entry says Candoco are a professional dance company focused on the integration of disabled and non-disabled artists.

So yeah, this is a performance that I really love.



Also, if I may have two choices, on a purely shallow level there's this.

The Candoco video is brilliant. And how can Tom Holland not feature in today's theme?

I've never heard of or seen Candoco Dance Company, and it's been my loss. Brilliant and thank you!

And Tom Holland's Umbrella! Well what more can be said other than yay!
