The Importance of Being...

I could have finished that phrase with many different words; present, focused, driven, persistent, motivated. Dance is like many other skilled based activities. What you put into dance, is directly related to what your dancing looks like. Your teacher can be laser focused and have big goals, but if you, as the dancer, are not fully invested in practice your skills will not progress.

We talked about progress in class in the last two weeks. Progress is a highly individual thing. One person's progress can look very different from someone else's. We teach students to focus on one skill or correction at time as they begin and then start to layer skills and corrections on top of each other.

The more you dance with intention and presence, the better it gets.

Practice logs are coming soon for all classes!
