RHY.12:4.4 - Rejoin the contribution and vary what later use requires
Return the developed contribution to the passage. Observe it while the encompassing action and other constituent actions occur together. A successful isolated accent, count or turn remains an intermediate result until the needed combination is performed.
Choose variation from the intended use. A passage used at several tempos needs practice across the relevant physical demands; a partner-dependent passage needs responsive interaction; entry at different cycle positions requires recovering the reference from those entries. Hold other consequential conditions stable when doing so helps identify what is failing.
Use HCD.10 to choose repetition, variation, spacing or interleaving. The amount and order of variation depend on the learner and the target contribution. When a change destroys an action still being acquired, a stable version can be the useful next practice. When a fluent familiar version conceals a needed choice or adaptation, introduce that change.
Changing tempo changes the time available for movement, preparation and recovery. Check that the altered passage still exercises the intended relation. A slowed turn may call for different balance control; a faster stroke may exceed the available recovery time. Return such a new prerequisite to its supplying technique rather than calling it merely another count.
Retain assistance that belongs in the intended performing arrangement. If later use requires performance without it, reduce its contribution deliberately and test that use through RHY.13. Removing a needed accessibility aid or the instrument itself changes the task and may change the performing whole.
