Waheyyy first attempt at doing and teaching bollywood dancing

In this lesson we looked at any different dance styles. These are the styles we looked at: ballet dance, ballroom dance, contemporary dance, belly dance and raqs sharqi dance, break dance, foxtrot, hip hop dance, irish dance, jazz dance, jitterbug dance, lindy hop dance, line dance, meringue dance, modern jive, modern dance, quickstep dance, rock and roll dance, salsa dance, samba dance, street dance, swing dance, tango dance, tap dance, waltz dance, bollywood dance, flamingo dance, african dance and finally aerial dance. Many of these dances i have not done before but by the end of this lesson i sure had sure experience on some of them! Ones i have done before are; Street dance (which i still do), irish dance, tap dance, ballet dance. We then had to teach one we had never done before so the one i choose to teach was bollywood.
Strengths:
- one of my strengths when doing this i think that my arms were every strong
- another strength i think was good is that my energy fow was good throughout it was only a short piece but if i were to carry on going this energy would of staied
- as becky also said ;) i think that i was good at teaching my bollywood peice as i explained it well and went through the first bit with the class then added the next part on then did it al to the music.
- when teaching i like to make my sessions fun and enjoyabe but stil knowing that people have earnt soething and i feel i did this
Weaknesses:
- i need to sort my talking out and not stuble with words and be ore confident with what im saying and doing
- i could of made this dance longer to make it ore intresing for the others
- stop pulling so any facial expressions!
- when pushing out to the side could of made arms more stronger
- when explaining i should go into ore depth about what i a saying and also ake sure i explain well so no one has questions to ask
Skills to develop:
Stronger arms - to do this i can work on ar exercises so whatever i do with my arms and in whatever position they are in they are strong.
Leg work - i seem to aways be bouncing on one leg so to make it more of a challenege i coud swap legs and bounce on the other leg
Spacial awareness - i had loads of space when doing this dance and i stood in one place i can develop on learning a new bollywood dance that invovles moving round the dance hall more and making it more active

To start developing these new skills i can put together exercises that strengthen my arms, i can also work on y co-ordination skills to swap legs when bouncing. To be aware of space i can learn new bollywood dances that are more active and invovles moving around more. I can do this by youtubing bollywood dances or going to bollywood dance classes or even lookin at films to get ove off of.
