Dancing

 

The love of dance

Dancing is an impressive skill when you do it right and with style. Here's how anyone can improve their dancing ability.

1. Start taking dance classes or dance lessons
Dance classes would be the number one way I would recommend of improving your dancing. Your first dance classes will be quite difficult which will reveal to you how much room there is for improvement.

2. Use a mirror
If you don't use a mirror to improve your dancing, now's the time to start! Only by using a mirror can you make adjustments to your dancing in real-time.

3. Use a video camera
Use a mirror to make adjustments in real time as you dance. Use a video camera to watch and evaluate your dancing. There are even certain things you won't notice while looking at the mirror, but will be plainly obvious when watching back on film.

The video camera isn't perfect, but it doesn't lie and can be a good way to iron out mistakes fast. After all when something looks wrong, you'll want to be the first one to correct it!

4. Practise outside of dance class
Going to dance classes is a great way of practising and improving your dance. However you need to practise outside of the dance class as well to go over new material you learn and perfect. The class is where you learn, home is where the real training ground is though.

If you happen to have a dance studio in your home even better!

5. Practise with music
It's fine to practise without music when you are going over things. However it's important to practise with music as well. A dancer becomes a great dancer when what they are dancing starts to connect with the music on a deeper level.

6. Learn to freestyle at home
Being able to freestyle as well as do dance routines is a great skill. However you may need to begin by just putting on some music and trying out some dance moves. The more you do this, the more comfortable you will become dancing without any pre-rehearsed moves.

7. Dance outside of the bedroom
Learning to dance in other environments except for home or the dance studio will make you a more confident dancer. A big part of dancing is the confidence you put behind the moves.

8. Watch videos of other dancers
Take inspiration and learn about different styles, watch how different people do different moves and develop a better understanding of dance.

9. Learn to dance more than 1 style
Expand your thinking beyond the style you are comfortable doing, and develop a better understanding of dance in general.

10. Stop reading this and start practising.
