DANCE VIDEO OF THE WEEK 14

Hi everyone,

Although the Mid-years are ongoing, let's take a little break to watch a little video :)

Illusion - A very cool bit of dance that I will be sharing with you today:

In this choreography, there are some bits and pieces of "ultra-fast motion/movement" which you may or may not have noticed. If you didn't really see, its fine, because it blends so well with the music that it may be hard to pick up the first time. In dance, to follow the fast beats, you don't have to make ultra big movements and make it so concise. Because the actions happen so fast, people will simply get the feeling that you hit every single fast beat, and then they'll all go WOW! The main thing is behind this ultra-fast movement is the STYLE in which you did the move and not the actual move.

An example I can give you to try is this: When you drink water, you may find yourself doing 3 simple actions:

1. Pick up the cup.

2. Pour water into the cup (using your other hand)
3. Bring the cup to your mouth.

4. Drink water.

If you make all these 4 steps into a dance move, make it sharp, maybe add a little bit of footwork here and there and do the 4 steps to a quick beat and you'll get something really cool.

Ok enough procrastinating, go back to your work. :)
