Best Answer - Chosen by Asker: I have about 2 weeks untill tryouts! Help! like what skills or steps do I need to learn?

quick pointers

- work on flexibility ( spilts . cartweels)
- try and find out what you will have to da and practise
- watch good dance routines on youtube and get ideas
-have a dance prepared in case
-try goin to a danc eclass outside school
- if not get a friend who is a good dancer to help you out
- get the right dancing gear to wear .. that why you will look more proffesional at the audition.. instead of turning up in jeans and trainers ( i have hip-hop trainers they are great ) i get them on dance direct
- smile while dancing
- show personality
- be unique
- have fun they can tell if you don't
-just practise practise practise
- try and get basic dance moves such a pirouettes ( http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uGuvXwJW8... ,,,that shows u how ... if you can get that try doubles
- leps are good and jumps

learn to balance and study hip hop..jazz and ballet!

ballet, it's coolz

If you feel you can, go up to current members of the dance team and ask them what you need to do. Also, you could watch shows like America's Best Dance Crew to get some ideas on moves that will be fresh. Make it something easy so that if you get nervous you will not "freeze up".
Hope this helps and GOOD LUCK!!!!

go to youtube and type in 'miley cyrus slow motion' she has great dance steps and when i was trying out for my school team i studied her dance moves and learnt all the moves from one song in about 1 week. and i made it in! so yeah good luck!

u hav 2 be flexible not super flexible but atleat so u can kick ur leg high and maybe do the splits, learn hip hop and contemporary dance, if u can do those u can do ne thin!

Gud luck!

Try little routines at random times that u make up. There are videos on YouTube that help you, you can watch America's best dance crew and dance on sunset, and just study music vids! Practice makes perfect!

Stretch everyday until the audition, and work on your splits. I don't know about your school, but most like to see that the person trying out has their splits down. If you have to choreograph a dance, make it entertaining, but don't throw in things you can't do so well. You'd rather do well at something you're good at than to try something harder and mess it up right? Once you're finished with it, have someone watch you perform and see what they say. Or if you don't feel comfortable making up your own routine, have someone help you. Hope this helps and good luck!

Add some quick cartweels if u can do splits do that and if u can do backflips defenetly add them in. Music do songs like Please dont stop the music by Rihhanah . Do turns ( point toe out and have straight horsontal arms . Then place what ever foot that was pointed behin you and add some weight onto it bend both legs then lift leg up and turn with elbowlsinto ur ches i hope this helps and good luck
