A photograph of a dance rehearsal at Jacob’s Pillow around the 1960’s. There are 18 women pictured sitting on their knees with the top of their feet flat on the ground. All women are raising both their arms to shoulder height, forming an “o” with their thumb and index fingers while keeping the remaining three fingers straight.
