The first thing we did in today's lesson was discuss the relationships between some of the characters one of the relationships were between Angel and her mother. Angels mother wants a traditional happy family life ignoring any bad things/issues going on however all Angel wants is for someone to believe her, comfort her and wants to feel protected, this relationship goes against the stereotypical one of a mother and daughter. 

One of the physical movements we did was we would fall into the arms however they would push our hands away, Angel would then fall into her mothers chest they would grab her head to comfort Angel but she would slide through the arms and fall onto the floor. When Angel falls the mothers hand are still in the same position when they were holding Angels head this shows that she is missing her and is longing for a closer relationship. And Angel slipping out of her mothers hands shows that the relationship they had is slowly going because her mother refuses to listen and believe her. 

Another relationship we did was Brotha and Couzin, they have very opposite personalities, for this exercise Brotha would go to random people and try to loop with them however Couzin would not let him and keeps pulling him away. This allowed us to explore their relationship all Brotha wanted was comfort and to feel safe but Couzin was not allowing that to happen.
