Position:Home>Performing Arts> I have dancers block!!!???!!! HELP!!!?


Question:I am choreographing a dance for the school talent show (it's a lyrical solo) and I have some ideas for moves in my head (I wrote them down too so I won't forget) but I just can't think of any more moves, and an order in which to put the moves I already have into the song I think I want to do!!!! How do I get passed this creative block stopping me form choreographing (which normally comes easy to me)!?!?!?! Should I change the song, right now it's Chasing Cars by Snow Patrol, but if you have any suggestions on songs that are somewhat similar to that please tell me!

And any tips for choreographing a dance is welcome! THANKS A LOT!!!!!

Try to stay calm!!! I know just the cure. You have to listen to classical music, 24/7. Now, let the music flow through you. Then, you are now an accomplished person who is very gifted.

watch some dancing on youtube or something... and just move to the music....

Youtube really helps
I saw the most creative ballet video of a girl dancing Numa Numa, I'm not saying do what she did,but just make it creative

get ideas from other video's/internet.
and chasing cars isnt a great dancing song...
