#1 tip: CONFIDENCE!!
Act as if you know exactly what you're doing!. SMILE!! You'll never make it if you can't smile!. If you mess up, NEVER show it on your face!. I made the mistake of making a face when I screwed up, and didn't make it my freshman year!. Concentrate on arm movements!. The judges will NOT being staring at your feet waiting for you to mess up!. They will be watching how well you know the general movements and how well you exaggerate them!. Give attitude!! Flash them a smile or even wink if you're brave enough!. The loudest most confident and cocky girls make it!. Don't let stress and nerves take over!. Walk into the judging area thinking you're good, and you're gonna make it!.
Good luck!! Tryouts are hard!.!.!.but practice A LOT and practice smiling as well!!
Have fun!!Www@QuestionHome@Com

seriously! dont panic!. if you know your routine then there is nothing to be worried about!. Just think of it as another day with other girls and your teacher or something!. Dont let your nerves get the best of you because the judges notice these things!.
I did karate and ballroom dancing and we had actual contests and stuff!. I was nervous but i just thought of it as another practice session and I did fine! Just smile, introduce yourself lik eyouve met them a gazillion times and do your thang! lolWww@QuestionHome@Com

Imagine they're all sitting there in their underwear (and try not to laugh)!. Really, they're more concerned with making the right decision than staring gamma rays through you!. They're taking their responsibility seriously, and as individuals, they're almost certainly more nervous than you!. The real secret is being confident in what you're doing because you're prepared!. Remember that!. It's a lesson for life!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Here are some i use when i am nervous!.

* dont eat about an hour before you try out!.
* take deep breaths
* think about something that makes you happy
* talk about something funny with a friend before you try out so that your laughing and all happy in front of the judges!.

Good luck! I hope you make it!Www@QuestionHome@Com

Pretend its not a tryout, try and just be the best you can be without thinking about those ppl sitting over there!. You're either going to pass or fail, there is no point worrying about it, just let it happen, be your best, and you'll do fine!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
