Sequencing Couples Dances


Sequencing Couples Dances 111211

Psyche Lunasea leads a dance group called MaHal, which features performances using sequenced couples dances. Psyche uses the MLDU5 Dance HUD which allows control of couples dancing.

Here is a video made by Florine Writer of a couples dance by Psyche called Thalia's Por Amor.

Psyche has shared the dance sequence with us. It is in the format used by the MLDU5:

This gives you an idea of how sequences for couples dancing can be done and the beautiful result by a very experienced choreographer.
