  • @GodfreySilas
    @GodfreySilas 6 років тому +1

    The evocative power of lyrical motion when unbridled. Sinuous, melodic, mystical! The divergent evolution of classical ballet in its multiplicity of dimensions can only serve it well as a high art. Dancers can really only perform the Lyrical Jazz Dance with the classical line just like Horton, Graham, Ailey, Cunningham, Luigi techniques. This reminded me of my choreography based on the Luigi soft jazz - elegant, supremely sublime. Here, perfect musicality lends complementarity to movement elasticity, driving the collective effort to a symphonic resolve. Bravissima!

      @Czadzikable 4 роки тому +11

      Don't be scared! Join an adult class! There are some classes specifically for beginners and some for mixed skill where you will find a mixture of complete beginners of all ages (adult), medium skill amateur hobbyists and some retired professionals.
      It's quite fun to be able to watch those more experienced in the same class - they will *not* judge you though! They're there to dance, not to judge or compete - everyone is there because they want to dance - and so no matter what ability level they're at, they will be happy that other people want to dance too (otherwise there'll be no classes!) and they will be encouraging and supportive to anyone just starting out or wanting to improve.
      And generally the culture of dance classes is so, that dancers don't comment on each other - other than mutual encouragement.
      Only the dance teacher will give instructions and constructive criticism - and the dance teacher will never make any personal or mean comments - they will try to help you to do exercises /movements more correctly and just tell you things like: "here the leg goes like this: ___", "Good.", "Point your toes.", "Straighten the supporting leg.", "Yes, that's better.", "Keep your left arm like this during this movement." [they might physically help you put it in the right position /angle], "Straighten your back like this [they will use their palms on your back gently to help you achieve the right posture], "On 7-8 look along your right arm." - etc.
      - Dance class is full of technical corrections and explanations like this from the dance teacher to individuals or to the whole class - it's not personal and no one will judge you on receiving corrections - everyone is focusing on listening to the teacher's comments /reminders and improving themselves - and everyone will value receiving personal corrections from the teacher, as it means you can improve more! 😁
      I see now your comment is from a year ago... Did you go to dance classes? If you haven't yet, start this September!
