personal dance development

Stolen off a thread on Bhuz....

a valuable bit of advice.  - something I should be thinking about....


There are a couple of exercises I use with my private students, to help them figure out what kind of dancer they want to be when they grow up.

1. You've just danced in a show. You're in a stall in the ladies room and a couple of women come in (dancers or GP), discussing your show. What 3 things would you like to hear them say?

2. If you had a magic dance wand that would grant you 3 dance wishes, what would they be?

The responses to both of these exercises usually clearly indicate where the student's focus should be.
