I"M BACK!!!!!!

HEY HEY HEY

I'm finally back. Just to mention that it has been a crazy 2 and 1/2 months.
Last week was a big week for dancers in Singapore. Haven't had this feeling of relief after a major production for a long time but i guess it was a very good experience both in dance and management.

Anyway this will be just a some break cos we'll be having another dance production by NUS dance blast in September and Code Edge in October....YAYYYY.

Missing in action

Guess that its been sometime since i've posted something on the blog, but just to update, i've been busy with rehearsals and planning since the start of April. But the quote that keeps me going.

"Enjoy the hardship, love the pain"

Its the hardship and pain that makes it valuable. Hope that everyone reading this would continue to inspirations in their daily lives to work towards their dreams.

Taking it to the stage

Just some new thoughts from a performance i watched recently. I must first mention that there has been a lot of effort and money put into this production. This stage is definietly not a cheap place to use for any performance. One regretful thing i have to say is that i feel very sad that some items put on stage were not up to the standard of the stage it is on.

I feel sad not because of the bad performance but that such an extravagant stage was given to people trying to do dance moves when there are struggling artiste who spend their lives trying to get their works seen on stage. It might be the lack of connections for funding or just that the people are not aware of the stage they are on.

However it is, this is not to put down anyone but to tell people to cherish every performance chance they have might it be on a small or big stage.

Quoting from my teacher, " Take every performance on stage to be your last..."

This is really sick stuff. Crazy control and style!!! Need to make a trip dow to LA sooonnnn!!!

The little details

Sometimes its the little details that makes all the difference.

As how the little girl was learning to do the 'whatever', she put in all the details in adding the eye roll and hand up that made the moment a classic. Sometimes its just the little observations that enables the little girl to emulate that 'whatever' attitude.

Taking it from the aspect of dance, some people just look so good doing certain movements and it all boils down to noticing and adding the details. A little angle change or adding a certain attitude is all you need to carry off the style and movements. Applications of observations.

P/S: On a sidenote.... i love this kid, she's got the attitude!!!

Learning the "whatever"

The eye roll and hand wave completed the whole package.
