So tell me, what makes a good dancer. just the fact that she/he can groove to the beat? well ive come up with my very own list of the TEN things a dancer must be or have to be, not just a good, but a fantabulous dancer.
1) This is the most important okay.
NO attitude problems. Throughout my whole dance life, i have come to discover that 90% of dancers have attitude problems. And its not that his/her attitude only affects him/herself, but the whole group. And you all should know, dance isnt about yourself. It's about the whole group. So yeah. But anyway. Sometimes we cant help it. I'm not denying that I myself don't have attitude problems. Cos seriously, I do. But well, I try to not let it affect others. =)
2)
Believe in perfection. You know, some people are lazy. So they believe whatever they do it ENOUGH. Well I've learned that nothing in dance is ever enough. It's always always about practice and perfection.
3)
Punctuality. It's not very nice to make your dance mates wait you know. Carte Blanche inplemented the rule : Latest to come buys Big Gulps for everyone! YAY!
4) When you dance,
Don't stress lah. The audience see you stress they also stress. You dance you look up at them then smile. You wanna flirt with the judges also better. Later they high already then will give more marks. HAHA. Expression is veryy important!
5)
Control your movements. Don't anyhow swing swing your hands like monkey/sotong lah. So not glam okay. Like (no offence) Lav, who always swings her hands and legs into everyone. I just got smacked at by her at least 3 times today cos her whole body was everywhere on me HAHA.
6) This is the most obvious and does-not-have-to-be-said thing.
Must groove to the beat/music. If you can't, i recommend you trying Singapore Idol. Dance Floor might not be your forte.
7) You make mistake on stage,
Don't stick out your tongue. It's not pretty. Unless you have a tongue piercing and you wanna show it. Well, then that's fine. LOL.
8) Even if you have a really bad diarrhoea, you still come.
Don't let your group down. Cos one person short means a whole load of reconstruction of formation and other shit.
9)
Believe that you as an individual are a BIG thing to the group. Such that you can offer something to your group and are just as good as your other team members. You know, degrading yourself isn't going to help. Cos you have confidence you are just as good as the rest, then you are. Cos a dance group functions as a group. Not cos of just one or a few dancers.
10) This is for the girls.
Before a competition, don't talk to your boyfriend. Cos if you fight with him, you're gonna be in a bad mood then you cant dance properly.
Oh i love my Carte Blanche-rs. I know i talk a lot lah. But I believe it is for the best of the group. In dance i believe in perfection. So i just hope you all understand that and believe in this too. =) LAP LAP to everyone. bye.
And anyway Carte, tmr's our audition. YOU KNOW WHAT TO DO!!! =)))
