Does anyone do dance?

Question

what kind of classes do you take?

i take lyrical my sign ups are tommorrow and i think i'm going to take 2 or 3 lyrical classes:)

Answer 1

i take dance lessons and i have for 10 years so far.

i'm not gonna quit either.

in school i take jazz, some hiphop, and lyrical. they mix the semesters up so we always take something different.

at my dance studio, i take jazz, broadway jazz, tap, ballet, and this year i'm going to be starting competition classes. a jazz group, and a tap solo.

Answer 2

don't take all classes of the same kind!! make yourself more diverse. I grew up with ballet, then jazz, modern, tap, lyrical and hip-hop. if you're comfortable with one, take something else. as a dancer, you need to continue to challenge yourself with new movement and new technique.

believe me, when you learn a different or new style of dance you didn't know before, it actually improves and polishes all the other styles you previously knew and makes you a more dynamic dancer. take something of everything!  ;)

Answer 3

The type of classes you should take is dependent on what type of dancer you want to be. I don't know if you know what lyrical is but it is dancing to the words of the song as your beat. It tends to be more emotional. Lyrical normally has Jazz and Ballet movements. If you think you would like ballet you should take it because it will will help you with several different dance styles and make you strong physically and technically. If you take Jazz I would be careful because there are a lot of teachers that are not teaching professional Jazz. If you are able to take several dance classes than go out and experiment to see which ones you like. Tap is recommended to help you keep the rhythm of music but I am not sure if it helps with lyrical but the rhythm you learn for tap is different than lyrical.

I am currently taking ballet but I have taken 5 months of lyrical and hip hop and two years of jazz. Make sure the teachers at the studio you are attending are properly training you and are correcting your mistakes. If your teacher has been part of a dance company than I would think they are more likely to know the correct way of doing the movements.

Answer 4

I took belly dance few months ago.. and it is fun and interesting yeah!

Answer 5

I was a dancer when I was younger. I danced for 6 years. Most of all were tap classes but sometimes I took a few numbers and the others were a jazz class and a few ballet. I wish I never would have quit. A big regret in my life...

Answer 6

I take ballroom. I'm going to take musical theater and teen intro to ballet (maybe). The ballet class is to make taking modern easier once I start taking modern (if I decide to).

Answer 7

I took ballet it was fantastic..........................

Answer 8

i take hiphop and krumping..[[5]] years

some ppl dont kno wat krumping is but it is a african american thing all races can do it actually it is relaeasing energy with ur movement..

Answer 9

I think you should take like 2 lyrical classes and one ballet because ballet helps you in other ways for all other types of dance! =]
