DANCE PE CHANCE CONTEST!

SRK DANCE PE CHANCE

Hi guys

Well this time im back with a very different video. Not the usual bellydance. We are joining a SRK Dance PE cHANce contest where we have to do our own choreo for a bollywood song. My sisters really got excited. So i decided to try it out. I cant do much cos they arent trained dancers. They really did as mmuch as they could. So i had to simplify steps as we had a lack of time.

dO Rate comment and vote for us. Atleast for my sisters attempt. We did have a lot of fun doing it.

Some stuff i tried

Well whether its a contest or not, i do still have some stuff to share with you. Some time back, i wrote here that indian dance involved  facial expressions. Example, Bharathnatyam tells a story true gestures and facial expression. Gothic bellydance adopted that as well.

Well here, i just decide to use animated expressions. Expressions can be a choreography! People always tend to think dance is about moving body parts. But nope. Its about expression. And expression can come from any source. I wish people will involve more emotion and expressions for bellydance as well. It will bring dance to a whole new level.

Doing cute stuff always works as well. Its about being you in your dance. I would uplood more belly home vids soon. So please watch out for it,

Happy Shimmies!!!

Bellygram at Carlton

Hello there. Ive been uploading my performances recently. I am yet to do a home video. But before that I do owe Tommy a video. So just waiting for my messy life to clear up so i can do a good one.

Bellygrams

Well this was hell of a bellygram. Becos i cracked my toe nail from a bad fall few hours before this dance. It hurt really badly. N the bleeding was pretty bad. I was worried that i might not even be able to walk. But as they say, “The show must go on…”

So behind all the smile, there was excruciating pain. I managed to conceal it pretty well.

I had done this dtum solo several times already. I realised when one keeps doing the same drum solo, you are able to hit all the beats.

As a dancer, i really wish to perform a fresh new choreo everytime people see me. But doing a choreo you are used to, makes you the master of the dance.

So i guess ive to tell myself not to be too hard about making new choreos.

Expression

When we are used to a certain choreo…we dont think anymore. When we are on stage, we cant think about our next step. We should be free. Doing a choreo you are comforatble with, makes you more expressive with your hands, face and interact better with the audience.

Working on stuff to help dancers

Ive met many dancers who give up bellydancing after sometime due to problems or society. Its pretty sad that people do not understand the suffering behind an artist. Bellydance is not eye candy. It takes so much of effort to bring up a performance. Many dancers dance for the adreline rush and magic they get on stage. Thats what i do. The feeling is amazing.

I am ot sure if i am ready to take up requests yet. I am waiting for my busy schedule to lighten down a little.

Thanks for being there for me. Happy Shimmying!

Comedy POV video

My lecturer uploaded this. So here it is. I didnt want to upload this because one of the actresses didnt want it online. Well the school has put it up, so i have conveniently embedded it here. Ive experimented with comedy and visual elements. I dunno if comedy and bellydance goes well. But well…lol
