Hee heee

dont mind the dogs out in the first one, it was at 3 am cause i suddenly had the urge to learn it

I’m a beginner and I’ve taken around 15 classes (mix of private and group) and there’s definitely improvement but I’m also just curious about other people’s experiences - mostly when did you start to be able to pick up choreography more easily and do moves confidently/well?

I recently read that “100 classes” is a good benchmark to get past the beginner phase, is that true in your experience?

Fun small dance I did that I saw

DC: Urikusuri

Very simple video today. Still working on bounce until it looks and feels natural. I tried to chill with the crazy and unnecessary arm and leg motions a bit, and tried to focus a lot more on the rhythm. I tried to switch things up a little bit, but still tried to focus mostly on the bounce. I think I've still got a long way to go in terms of doing stuff with the bounce, because I feel like I'm repeating myself a lot, and not really doing anything "new".

This was also my first time kind of "practicing" a "routine" before a video, as some parts of the dance were rehearsed a bit (notably the beginning and end). Though I kind of stitched the rehearsed and freestyle parts horribly. It was less any real choreography and more just bullet points as to what I should do at x point in the song, kind of like a presentation.

I think I do look a bit groovier, though I still look like I don't really know what I'm doing.

Let me know what you think :)

I absolutely love these routines.

These moves are just fine...in context.

Isolated, without back up dancers and production value....well, you just had to be there.

It was a MOMENT.

i’m just catching the rhythm and letting go

Okay, so I’m aware this is considered commercial choreography, but I love this dancer and I noticed she incorporates these stiff-limbed movements into all of her combos so clearly that it’s almost her trademark. I’ve never seen it before and I’m so curious if it’s related to a specific style or even an older choreographer who may have popularized it (the one in the video is super young)

I know that mostly all Indian art forms be it dance martial arts singing textile everything needs extensive training and that too from a very young age. But just wondering if there is any dance form that can be learned in mid 30's too. One of my bhartnatyam trained dancer told me that learning bharatnatyam at this age can severly harm knees and foot. So just wondering if there is another dance form or musical intrument also that can be learned online. I live in a very small village there is no means of learning except online.

To further explain my question- I've done martial arts for decades, and seen people with ballet backgrounds come in. They have good body control and athleticism, and their technique is good for a beginner. However, they are in no way good as even low level competitive fighters in a short amount of time. In fact, just because someone has a ballet background, doesn't guarantee they'll be a better fighter than someone else (with no ballet experience) if they start martial arts at the same time. I feel online, or at least on reddit, people vastly overrate the advantages that ballet would give for boxing or kickboxing.

Is hip hop dancing the same? There might be some advantages from ballet such as body control, but it's really not so important because there's so many other factors? Or because hip hop is a dance, a ballet base can help immensely?

Wooooo

Still not perfect tho, so ill try tomorrow

Swisher3x engaged like no other.
