1. Phrases are like sentences. There is a noun, a verb and an adjective or adverb.
2. Each Phrase has a beginning, middle and an end. An opening shape to begin, an action to be accomplished, a dynamic to clarify and an intent to inspire or motivate.
3. Movements combine to make a phrase. Phrases develop intents by repetitions, variations, changing directions or facings, rhythms, dynamics and sequencing.

CONTINUITY

Of intent and purpose
Dynamically balanced shapes
Movement shapes flowing smoothly throughout
Consistency of focus and objectives
The dog and the human expressing the joy of their relationship
Involving and maintaining spectator interest

Phrases and choreography have beginnings, middles and ends. Each part is connected with a transitional set of movements to maintain the easy smooth flow of the choreography to maintain spectator interest and to prevent confusion and chaos as in kitchen sink choreography.
