Sadie Hawkins dance

In the cartoon Sadie was so ugly that she couldn’t land herself a man. Having all the bachelors in town, Sadie chased after them. When a man was caught he would be legally bound to marry her. Now every year for forty years this holiday has been happening. To the right is a graph by Chillisauce News of North America and Canada. It represents when and who is proposing to who. As you can see men propose a lot more than women. The time that men propose most is on Christmas Eve and the time that women propose is on Valentine’s Day, but men propose more than women. There is no reason this should happen. Women can have authority and have dominance over men. Again, here is a graph by Chillisauce News saying what people say of women proposing. Sixty five percent say that men should propose and thirty five percent…

Joe responded by saying “You ain’t nuthin but a boy. You don’t need a gun.” (Wright, pg. 861) When Dave told his mother that he wanted to buy a gun, she responded with, “Nigger, is yuh gone plum crazy?” (Wright, pg. 863) Next she told him “Ah don care whit Ah promised! Yuh ain nothing but a boy yit!” (Wright, pg. 863) She then goes on to insult his ability to make decisions for himself after he continuously asks her for his money by saying “… Thas how come Ah asked Mistah Hawkins t pay yo wages…

Paula Hawkins has created contemporary novel, The Girl On The Train, which has solidified her place as a good author. When read and evaluated through the eyes of Victor Nabokov, I could find different ways Hawkins proves she is a storyteller, teacher and enchanter. With her diligent use of suspense and detail, along with the use of multiple unreliable perspectives, Hawkins puts readers through a psychological game of critical thinking. The farther into the story you get, the more questions you…

discipline I have learned as a student, I have grown as a person and a dancer. I believe that the outcome of the dance program is not only the degree, but life lessons and knowledge to excel in the real world. My long term career goals include performance and owning and operating my own studio/company. After college, I hope to perform and begin adding various professional endeavors to my dance resume. I would love to dance professionally…

Age-Appropriate Coaching: A Dance Perspective. There are many factors to keep in mind when coaching any type of sport. A specific factor that absolutely must be adhered to is age, which influences many performance capabilities both physically and psychologically (Crocker, 2011). In consequence, all coaches must adjust their instruction in order to maximize success of athletes. I have had the opportunity to work with youth from ages three to fifteen in a dance setting, which, after many failures,…

Dance Alabama is a program through the dance department that gives students of all majors to try out and participate in a dance production. It is generally students that grew up and danced throughout their childhood and high school years. The audition process is competitive so it is an honor for the performers that were chosen for this production. Some chosen continued to study dance at the university and others decided to pursue other interests but still have a passion for dancing. They…

and it really killed my mood for the evening. Generally, when I get asked to work a performance I am excited to see new works and analyze them; see what the community is doing with dance. After…

Back to the Past The upcoming week is Spring Formal Dance at Phoenix High School. Students are passing notes, asking their crushes to the dance. Some students test their limits to go big, making posters saying, “Would you go to Spring Formal with me?”, and buying bouquets or chocolates or candy; who would ever say, “no” to that. Grace and her squad; Mason, Daisy, Olivia, and Maya; planned to walk together into the assembly. The assembly was authorized to inform the students about the Spring…

I have chosen to review the Alberta Ballet’s performance of Love Lies Bleeding for my dance production critique. Preceding the show I had relatively low expectations since I am not an Elton John fan and the show was set to his music and was inspired by his journey. Fortunately, my expectations were surpassed considerably. Love Lies Bleeding was a zestful, dynamic, and alluring theatrical experience unlike no other. This production was built on a strong foundation of classical ballet technique…

Some people take dancing more seriously than others. There’s people that dance for fun at parties, there’s people that like dancing a lot so they join a dance team, and there is people that love dancing so much that they even want to major in it. Also, there’s people that are born to dance; they don’t have to try that hard to be about to perform a dance move, and there’s people that have to practice a lot to be able to do a dance move. Well, I am in the middle. I like dancing a lot that I’ve…
