What do you think of this dance?

Question

I'm planning to try out for a dance team in high school. [Not cheer or drill.] So I would like to know what you all think of this dance. And should I use it for the tryout? Thanks.

Answer 1

That's not exactly "dance team dancing."  I would choose something with a little more difficulty, not necessarily technical difficulty but something.....the video is cute but it's all about s*x appeal.  Thrusts, shimmy, hip movements, poses...which isn't appropriate for high school, and isn't very professional.  It's very "Pussycat Doll-esque." While it's nice to show that you have rhythm and are flexible, you'll need more than that.  Remember, you want the judges/coaches to say "WOW!  She's talented!!!!"

Try looking for some examples high school dance team routine on Youtube.  You should find some good (clean) choreography, with some jumps, turns, and maybe a trick if you have time/training.  The main point is to have fun with it and do your best.  

Here's a couple videos to start with:

Good luck to you!  Hope this helps!

Answer 2

lol all those girls in that vid is sooo skinny! haha well umm. i guess u can try this since it isnt all that difficult. but add more creativity to it cuz all i see in that vid is just hips doing the same routines over and over again and little hand movements. so yeah check out other vids that has better movements to add on to what ur doin. good luck.  

Answer 3

Probably not appropriate for high school.
