Question: What dance class should i take!?
well, I'm a 14 year old girl and I am starting dancing (again since i was 3) for the first time in 8 years!. I have been teaching myself breakdancing and soon going to a school for it, but my mom says i should take something else just in case!. I am 5"3 and muscular/average weight!. I have very good balance, ok posture, great hand-eye coordination!. I am VERY athletic and strong so i can hold myself up really easily!. Any suggestions on dance classes i'm not too old too take that i would be good at!? Thankss =DWww@QuestionHome@Com


Best Answer - Chosen by Asker:
doesn't sound like you're the ballet-type person, so I suggest modern, jazz, hip-hop, and possibly lyrical!. have fun! (it sounds like you'd be really really really good at hip-hop!) modern and lyrical would be good too if you don't mind the slowness - it's not as "exciting" as b-dancing or hip-hop!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Modern! Since you are lucky enough to have good balance, hand-eye coordination, and you are muscular and average weight, modern dancing is definetly the thing for you! You will become very, very flexible and fit!. You could also take jazz-funk, which is like the type of dancing people do like on MTV and in music videos!. Heck, you should just do both!Www@QuestionHome@Com

Decide whether you want to embrace a dance style that is of a particular culture i!.e!. do i like south american, asian, african culture!. Go on to youtube and type in a variety of dance styles and watch each one keeping an eye on music styles used, speed, creativity, costumes and actual movements in each dance style!. Decide which one you like the best and go for it!.
