Question

My whole question didn't really fit, so here it is:

In your opinion, what is the hardest thing to overcome while performing a difficult step (other than the step itself)? This is for dancers.

Answer 1

To not only do the step correctly, but with the right style (grace, attitude, etc.). Anyone can be a great technical dancer, but great dancers capture an emotion as well. Great dancers are performers.

Answer 2

Making it look completely effortless.

Answer 3

When I was dancing (ballet, jazz and modern), I was always being reminded of my facial expressions. It seemed I always had a look of concentration during rehearsals. However, I always played the part right during performances...

Sure miss those days! Now I'm 29 and too pregnant to balance on TWO feet let alone one.

Answer 4

of course it is fear

i screwed up once. I become afraid of doing the step on stage in case i mess up again.

But i still do it after s******g up below stage 1000 times, as long as i succeed that one time on stage

Answer 5

i would say that making it look easy is definately the hardest thing. i would also say that sometimes it is scary but i think it is harder to make it look graceful, beautiful, and easy.
