Modern dance i need help like now!!!please?

Question

i need a modern inprov or begining everyone has to make up one i have 2 and 1/2 8 counts. please help and are lyrical and modern the same?

Answer 1

its improv so im not gonna be much of a help, but just dont be embarassed, do what you think feels right. just loose yourself in the music and youll come up with something. try just dancing around to the entire song first to loosen up.

also yes there is a difference between modern and lyrical. lyrical tends to be a little more classical, it is dancing that reflects the dancers interpretation of the lyrics in the song. Modern has many different kinds of techniques. It tends to be much more grounded and earthy. A lot of flexed feet and strong movements. ONe thing my teacer said to me once that i think makes  a lot of sense is dont think of it as "jazz" "lyrical" or "modern" or "ballet", its just choreography. movement. dancing. it shouldnt be confined to a label.

hope that helps. good luck and enjoy
