There's no greater feeling in the world than moving your body to
a piece of music and letting the rest of the world disappear. Dance is much
more than just a form of art . To master this art , you will have to put
continuous effort and give a lot of your time which can be very very difficult.
There is always a scope of improvement in the life of a dancer.
●
Staying consistent is really the
key. You will need to sacrifice those urges of sleeping or going out instead of
rehearseing. You have to prioritise and be regular with it. Turning up every time you have a schedule for
dancing will obviously hone your skills and movements. Even after learning the
moves , you can focus more on your flow and the opportunity to express
yourself.
●
Always stretch before dancing.
Stretching creates long lean muscles and more energy efficient movements .
Stretching helps a dancer attain the perfect postures required.
●
Practise even after your classes
and regular rehearsals . Practise as often as possible. Practise till you can't
get it wrong.
●
You should not compare your
progress with anybody else. Your only competition is you. With consistent
efforts , try to get better than what you were tomorrow. Everybody is different
and you should just keep going .
●
You should never be disappointed
in yourself , even if you make mistakes. They are just the proof that you are
trying . you should always have a positive approach towards your training and
should believe that you can do it. Negative thoughts are just going to bring
you down. If you believe that you can do it , then you're halfway there.
●
Whenever you feel like quitting,
always remember why you started in the first place. There are highs and lows in
every phase of life. And sometimes things can get difficult but don't look
back. You will gain confidence with time and it will calm down the inner
critic.
●
You can always just record
yourself . When you videotape yourself , you can see where you are going wrong
and then you can work on your movements and their clarity.
●
You need to do a lot more than
just learning the steps. Once you are through with all the movements and
techniques , you should focus on feeling the movements so that the steps remain
in your muscle memory .
●
You should have inspiration. It
will keep you moving towards your goals . You can watch different kinds of tutorials and videos
online.
You seriously need to take care of your body. Dancing needs balance in physical and even mental health. You need to have a healthy lifestyle and you need to have a calm and stress free mind. Dancing is divine and it requires a lot of elements for perfection.
