frequently asked questions:
My son/daughter has been dancing for years and has had a lot of training. Should he/she take Dance 1 or Dance 2?
Excellent Question. Studio training and other training is very beneficial and has a great focus on technique and the different genres of dance as a whole. Dance 1 encompasses the elements of dance, technique, choreography, meaning in dance and vocabulary. Dance 2 adds onto these principles learned in Dance 1 and develops a stronger and deeper knowledge. I recommend taking Dance 1 first to understand the principles of dance and then continue you onto Dance 2.
My son/daughter would like to audition for Dance Company next year. What can he/she be doing to increase their chance of making the team?
Take class from me. When you are in class with me and I am aware of your intentions, I can be watching you and working with you to help you improve. Work with your student at home. PRACTICE, PRACTICE, PRACTICE!
