The Flowery Pod

The Flowery Pod is a sacred group dance originating in The Doorstop of Spiny-Dogfishes. The form guides dancers during improvised performances. The dance is accompanied by The Wholegrain Tones. The dancers perform in a single line, moving with the music. The dance is straight-lined and serene.

• The dance begins with the chorus of the music. The dancers perform to the nebulursed rhythm. This section is punctuated by counterclockwise half turns, with movement mirrored by group members.
• The dance enters a new section with the verse of the music. The dancers perform to the rokul rhythm. This powerful section is punctuated by raised arms performed in succession by group members, forward bends and body level changes.
• The dance enters a new section with the bridge-passage of the music. This section is punctuated by body level changes and right leg lifts.
• The dance enters a new section with the next chorus of the music. The dancers perform to the sak rhythm. This section is punctuated by sensual independent body movement.
