FLASHDANCE
First, i would like to thank you for watching my demo
Secondly, thanks for the compliment from mike, the choreographer, several instructors from vancouver (tim), LA (linda), malaysia (michelle), singapore (cecilia) and a very good friend, who's also an instructor from Hawaii (auj)
as mentioned in my dance descriptions in youtube then you know there are different versions of the script - i) copperknob; ii) yipee iii) the choreographer's site.
thanks to mike taylor sent me the 'official script' which was downloaded from the choreographer’s site
from her site, i learnt that she's is a very experienced dancer and started line dancing several years ago. of course I admire her; she started her dance career long ago not like us, gave birth, raised the kids, became a 'sei lai' and started line dancing.
there was a feedback of the dance that i have to bring up here, a comment about our hand movements in the intro of our video; an instructor from my instructor's dance group commented the hand movements weren't in the script and 'WRONG' =O
oh, does the script say 'tie your hands at the back' and walk out the steps like walking ?
thanks to my friend reminded me, your dance group have 'added' to - things that were NOT on the script, i.e. 'am i ?' with the arm movements - they are not in the script; wooly bully diagonal shuffles instead of forward... AND your boss's own dance - 2 butterflies, the rock recover, side receover with hand movements, you better not to say she's wrong or she'll fire YOU =D
watch Rachael McEnaney in her own dance - Sentimental, note her body & hand movements, my gosh, a piece of art, i never felt the beauty when i learnt the dance until i watched her. we, are far from there, learn more, feel more, dance more WITH THE HEART .....
there're lots of knowledge about music, dance, hand movements, can't teach you all here, that worth money unless you pay and join my class; listen to the music - let it 'speak' to you.. go with the flow as they say (not with 'everybody else' - but with the music)
SIGH, i'm happy for you coz. your student same naive like you and listened to you, other than that .......
my only advice - NOT JUST WALK OUT THE STEPS and call that 'dancing'
HAPPY DANCING \:D/.......
Have a wonderful day =D
