Symmetry is lifeless.
Two-dimensional design is lifeless.
The eye is faster than the ear.
Movement looks slower and weaker on the stage.
All dances dances are too long.
A good ending is forty percent of the dance.
Monotony is fatal; look for contrasts.
Don't be a slave to, or a mutilator of, the music.
Listen to qualified advice; don't be arrogant.
Don't intellectualize; motivate movement.
Don't leave the ending to the end.
... from the Art of Making Dances.
