Martha Graham (Acts Of Light 1981)

The principles of Martha Grahams Technique 

Fundamental principles in Graham Technique include contraction and release, opposition, shift of weight and spirals.You should also be prepared for movement that is dramatic even in the opening exercises because Graham’s choreography is filled with vibrant, powerful characters. 

In Acts of Light I recognized that there it was dramatic through the contraction, there was lot of extension with the legs and arms. I could see they were using the 2nd position and Crossed legs, and spirals.
