Corner/sA place or angle where two or more sides or edges meet.

CubeA symmetrical three-dimensional shape,
either solid or hollow, contained by six
equal sides and eight corners.

DiagonalOblique lines (lines that
are neither perpendicular nor
parallel) that are made by connecting the
opposite corners of a cube, passing through
the center.

TessellationAn arrangement of shapes
closely fitted together, especially of polygons in a
repeated pattern without gaps or overlapping

In Rudolf Laban’s analysis of movement called Laban Analysis, the diagonals around the body afford the clearest three-dimensional use of the personal space around the body. Each diagonal makes an axis that cuts through the center of the body. There are four possible axes connecting the eight corners of the cube and crossing each other.

Improvisation 1: Stage Diagonals
• Stand in one corner and face the opposite one.
• Move across the floor in pairs dancing a simple movement pattern such as four jumps and four runs. Now move across on the diagonal using a zigzag pathway. For each crossing of the room, use two different kinds of locomotor movement such as a run on the Zig and a hop on the Zag.

Diagonal Dance
• In partners, create original Diagonal dances that will explore diagonal space in shapes defining personal space (section A) and in general space pathways with locomotion (section B).
• Design a beginning shape with your partner, emphasizing diagonals. Section A should include four nonlocomotor movement shapes with smooth logical transitions. Transition smoothly to section B. Section B should feature locomotor movement on different diagonals (zigzags) and move to a different spot in the room. Finish the dance in a diagonal pair shape.
