Group dance

team has made me into a better person, it taught me not to be selfish and to appreciate everything I have. I first started when I was in 1st grade and I was very shy at the time. I didn’t like going to the practices, because I was embarrassed to dance in front of people. At this time, I was very little and didn’t understand that I what I was doing was to help kids and that this wasn’t for me. I remember my first show that I did. At that age, I wasn’t expected to be good it was more just for…

The seniors of the BFA and BA dance programs at the University of Florida put together the show Mind Your Step. This show incorporated many different styles of work from both students and dance faculty. This semester’s showcase was quite different the showcase in the spring entitled Being, which featured several very similar dances. This time no dance was alike and some looked as if they had been created by a professional dance company. The first dance of the evening was Psalms of Mass…

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…

trying out for a team where you will be performing in front of the school. While waiting for the tryouts to begin, the captains passed out numbers, just like a real dance tryouts, similar to the ones in the movies. Being called out, one by one, there were interviews that were taken into place. Later, groups were assigned.

“Today we will be auditioning for lyrical and jazz performing groups.” Sue started. “I’ve already seen most of you dance throughout this year, but this audition is still important. Just remember to relax and dance for yourself.” We started with lyrical, one of my favorite styles. Abbie, a teacher at the studio taught a familiar combination to us. After reviewing it a few times, we split into groups and started the audition. The first group consisted of next year’s seniors, the only few who…

of friends, and was always excluded from groups. I’ve never blamed anyone but myself. I believe children that grow up doing some type of outside school activity tend to be more confident and more outgoing. At the age of five I started playing soccer. I remember showing up to the first practice extremely anxious, but glad I had my mom by my side. All of the other girls including myself started off by kicking the soccer ball…

Dance team has taught me a great deal about…

John Waller, a leading expert on the dancing plague of 1518, had this to say on the strange occurrences in a small, French town during 1518(Waller, n.p.). There is still much debate as to what caused the dancing plague to occur in 1518. Some people believe it was caused by the ingestion of ergot by the local people of Strasbourg, France(Israel, n.p). Others believe it was caused by a mass hysteria that…
