It is one of those things – you can only fully comprehend it if you’re a part of one.” (Pandey,Secrets Everyone In A Dance Team Knows,The Tab) there are so many things that many people outside of the team do not know. Some people think it is easy and that we barely do anything, others are more knowledgeable, but will never truly understand.

ecstatic at the same time. I was wishing time would slow down as they called number after number, dance, after dance, and my turn was quickly approaching. I ran my dance through my head during my final moments backstage. I heard my dance teacher telling me good luck, and just try to have fun. I was not ready to walk out among the heat bearing lights. It was June 24, 2015, and our competitive dance team had made it to nationals. Nationals is just like any other competition, minus the fact…

During my grade 12 year of dance I have learned many new skills in both hip hop and ballet that I was able to apply in my final performance. For example, during the dance show we applied slow movements to the hip hop dance. I applied this to my final performance because it taught me that even if my movements are slow and look very graceful that they can still have more energy. This allows me to project the emotion better to the class and in turn help me tell the story of the dance better. Also,…

interest of mine since i was five years old and began taking dance classes. Although I knew everything about learning and performing I had little knowledge about the choreographing process. I decided to learn these steps for my project to be able to construct my own dance in two years when I have my senior solo, as all seniors do at my studio. At the end of last year my dance teacher said if a fellow dancer and I wanted to choreograph our own dance for recital next year, she would definitely…

Quitting dance will be the worst mistake- why do you want to stop something when you have just begun? Trying to convince my dance instructor that it was what I needed to do was hard enough, but convincing myself that it was the right thing was even harder. That day, I battled internally with choose between my two loves, but now looking back do not regret a day after my decision. I remember that fresh spring morning, going to my first Irish dance class, where I found my first love. Those dance…

first lecture, dance is a living and fleeting art form. I believe that dance is a living art form because it is a three-dimensional picture to art. What I mean by this is that, art is normally seen on walls or as sculptures, but dance is an amazing opportunity to view art while in movement. If you are anything like me, when I look at a painting of two people or many, I always wonder what it would be like to see them actually dancing, singing, or even laughing. By watching dance, it is my…

The stories in which were expressed so adamantly on the program and through the art of a dance entitled “Here we are.” This power behind the performers twists and turns and the pain so easily expressed through the creases and frowns on their faces, led me to believe that these dancers were human and had experienced events that have made them…
