Question: Is this a good dancer!?
This is my friend at competition!. She's really insecure about her dancing and keeps wondering if she should continue on with it!. Can you guys watch the video and give her some feedback!?

I think she's good, but that's just my opinion!.

shes really really great and its obvious that she is talented so i think she should definatly stick with it!. On the other hand, if she doesn't like it then she shouldn't do something she doesnt like!. She shouldn't be insecure about her dancing!.!.Its beautiful and if she just put that behind her and put some passion into her dancing it would be even better! Tell her good luck with her dacing!!!Www@QuestionHome@Com

tell your "friend" who cares!.!. if shes insecure then she's not dancing to entertain, she's dancing to impress!.!.!. you can be a so-so technical dancer to entertain, if your trying to impress, then you're reaching too high of a goal!.!.!.

I can criticize if she would like to improve for herself !.!.!.

this "dancer" looks intermediate!. Her extensions need to continue!. Such as first side develope balance, her booty is sticking out!. She is trying too hard for a 'flexibility wow-factor' than to do a nice correct pretty extension!. That goes along with her ponche to side and the side balance turn!. Her feet are not always extended and tight, there are moments of 'flop' or 'drag' that are distracting!.!.!. Side or 2nd leap was not full and sharp!.!.!.she needs concentrate on pulling her knees to the ceiling and pulling from the inner thighs!.!.!.Choreography is maybe too advanced for her level!.!.!. the beginning was 'ho-hum' no emotion, not understanding what she is trying to execute!.

I can go on, but i would need to watch the video again!.!.!.

Understand this is correcting criticizim, she can ignore it, no one needs to listen, but a good dancer takes corrections, understand what is being said and practice for improvementent!. Hopefully this helps!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

i can see she has strength and control, but if she's modern trained she needs to be a bit more fluid and less stiff!.!.!. she has very nice arms, but when she does her extentions she should try to keep her knees stretched a little more!.!.!.!.

and as for "tooperky!.!." up there!.!.!.!. ^^^ you claim you're like this amazing experienced teacher, you don't even know how to spell half the terms you threw in there!.!.!. this isn't the russian rythmic gymnastics!.!.!.!. its some modern coreography by some rinky dink dance studio, calm your nipples lady, she's a dance student not a freekin professionalWww@QuestionHome@Com

look, i learned by watching that so you think you can dance show that i have no ability whatsoever to determine who is and is not a good dancer!. everyone i thought was good was told that they sucked!.

so i dont know what it means if i think your friend is great!. to be honest though, i prefer more butt-shakingWww@QuestionHome@Com

it's good, but if you really are into dancing if it is your passion!.!. show it!.!. dont be embarrassed!.!. I admire someone that really sticks into what they are doing!.!. you need to tell your friend to have more passion more desire for dancing!.!. she is good but she could get better!.!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
