The Lark of Rhythm

The Lark of Rhythm is a group celebration dance originating in The Inky Growths. The form guides dancers during improvised performances. The dance is accompanied by The Song of Music. The dancers perform in a circle, moving slower and slower to the music's mafina rhythm. The relaxed dance is punctuated by high backward bends.

• The dance begins with the theme of the music. This undulating section is punctuated by independent body movement.
• The dance enters a new section with the variations on the theme of the music. This delicate soft section is punctuated by graceful body level changes, curved walks and fluid leaps.
