Dance Time! :) TIPS
1. Find a Great Instructor! Experienced dancers know the importance of a good dance instructor. A dance teacher not only teaches new steps and techniques, but also corrects mistakes. If you are new to dance, choose your instructor carefully. If you have been taking lessons for awhile and don't seem to be improving, consider looking around for a different teacher. The more you dance, the more you realize what qualities you prefer in a dance instructor. 2. Watch Other Dancers! Rent a few dance movies or instructional DVD's. Watch the dancers closely, noting such things as body alignment, posture and technique. Try to find ways to incorporate styles you like into your own dancing. 3. Perfect Your Posture! Stand up straight, push your shoulders down and back, and hold your head up. It's truly amazing what good posture does for a dancer. 4. Stretch Daily! Stretching will make your body much more flexible. A big goal in dancing is to make each move look effortless. The more limber your legs are, the easier it will be to move them. Make it a habit to stretch every day. 5. Improve Your Technique! Professional dancers spend their entire careers perfecting their technique. Good technique is what separates the good dancers from the best dancers. Learn new moves, but strive to perfect the skills of each step. 6. Wear Proper Shoes! Each dance style requires a specific type of shoe. Dance shoes are carefully structured to protect the legs and feet and to benefit the dancer. Make certain that you are dancing in the correct type of shoe and that the shoes are the right size. 7. Relax! Your body will dance its best in a relaxed state. Take a few deep breaths and clear your mind. Teach yourself to unwind to the music. 8. Smile! A smile is an expression of pleasure, happiness, or amusement. If you smile while you are dancing, people will get the feeling that you love what you are doing. Even if you are dancing alone, smile at yourself. You love to dance, so let it show! |
Singing Tip! <3Breath from the diaphragm, not the lungs, you need to really control the air that you're expelling when you sing, and breathing from the diaphragm gives you more air to work with.
To do this, breath so that your stomach goes out rather than your chest when you inhale. When you practice, try to focus on using the same amount of air for low notes and high notes. This will help erase the break between your registers and give you more steady tone. |
