Dancers...?

Question

Do you have any special things you do the night before a recital? I'm nervous and extremely excited- I was just wondering what you (personally) do because this is my first one!

Answer 1

eat spagetti it always makes me relax andeat a good breakfast in the morning

Answer 2

hi! I'm bored to. I'm commenting this because first I need more points i just started doin this so yeah!

Answer 3

I am a dancer (Have been for 9 years), and the best thing to do is PRACTICE, so that you won't mess up. Even if you do, DON'T PANIC, the audience doesn't know your dance! Also you might want to descide what make-up to put on in the recital.

Answer 4

Prepare exactly what you need the night before so you're not even more nervous while your rushing around. Go over your dances or invite a friend over thats in your classes so you can practice it together.

If you want to forget about it go to the movies or mall with some friends so you can stop thinking about it.

At first I used to get really nervous but before long you get used to it.

Answer 5

i usually pretty nervous too, just think about other things the night before you'll be fine once i got on stage all my fear went away you almost forget the audience is watching

good luck!

Answer 6

set up everything for the next day

and then relax! i watch my favorite movies and eat my favorite healthy foods. sometimes i watch old dance recitals to get in "the mode".  i go over the steps of all the dances i'm doing the next day in my head throughout the day but i don't practice them because if you mess up then you start freaking out because you think that you don't know the steps even though you do. have fun! and good luck!

Answer 7

i take a nice, long warm oatmeal bath and then get my pj's on and watch a movie

Answer 8

I have all of my costumes and bag ready to go and I do go over all of my routines in my head before I go to sleep :)

Good Luck!

Answer 9

I just practice and get all my stuff ready so I don't have any reason to stress the next day.

Answer 10

everyone gets nervous but when i get ready to go out on stage i just tell myself that i know the dance and this is my time to show everyone how good i am. make sure to smile and have fun!

Answer 11

Well what i do is i get into my comfiest pajamas and curl up and watch a comedy or just a really good movie! I try not to think about the recital and stay relaxed... if you are concerned about one of your dances you can go over it before you get comfy. I know what its like being nervous for a recital. i am sure you will do great.  think positive and good luck!!
