In the finest tradition of modern and post-modern dance, where the exploration of even the most dislocated body movement becomes medium of expression, or where grace and elegance might be found in everyday movement, dancers on lockdown are performing from their homes. Inspired by the most mundane tasks, such as drying your hair, sweeping, and cooking, dancers are practicing and creating in very tight spaces, completely unsuited for dancing, and the propulsion needed for movement-mediated expression.
Despite lockdown orders, social distancing, and canceled theatre programs, dance troupes worldwide, for example in Russia, Europe, Africa, the US and Canada, are safely continuing to perform, The dancers are continuing to create together, exploring new possibilities, showing how they are coping with their new locked-down working conditions, alternatively expressing the new normal. Choreographies on lockdown are thus produced, enabled through cellphone videos of individual performances, in turn, edited, mixed, and composed—enough to continue kindling the spirits of Martha Graham and Merce Cunningham.
Below, the Mikhaelovsky Theatre Ballet at home choreography, envisioned, composed, created, and performed, in Saint Petersburg, Russia.

The below-referenced, freely available, Youtube performance videos capture a few more modern and post-modern choreographies on lockdown. Choreographies that have prevailed over the assault of the SARS-CoV-2 (Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus 2) pandemic.

A GREAT SPELL CASTER (DR. EMU) THAT HELP ME BRING BACK MY EX GIRLFRIEND.
Am so happy to testify about a great spell caster that helped me when all hope was lost for me to unite with my ex-girlfriend that I love so much. I had a girlfriend that love me so much but something terrible happen to our relationship one afternoon when her friend that was always trying to get to me was trying to force me to make love to her just because she was been jealous of her friend that i was dating and on the scene my girlfriend just walk in and she thought we had something special doing together, i tried to explain things to her that her friend always do this whenever she is not with me and i always refuse her but i never told her because i did not want the both of them to be enemies to each other but she never believed me. She broke up with me and I tried times without numbers to make her believe me but she never believed me until one day i heard about the DR. EMU and I emailed him and he replied to me so kindly and helped me get back my lovely relationship that was already gone for two months.
