First time dancing in a very very long while today. (That doesn't include the silly dancing in the shower.) Today's dance routine was like a turns sequence sprinkled with dance steps.
Step step pose, step step right turn. 4 chaines turns with change of direction each time (toughie!). Turn, reach, turn, pose. Step step step kick, attitude turn, soutenue turn. 2 pique turns, single turn, pose. Turn, pose. Shoulder/butt sway thing, turn. Run forward, reach, run backward, pose.
And all the turns were different turns, only that they don't have specific names.
Good stuff (: Overly turny ( = very difficult!), but nice choreography nonetheless. Lyrical jazz is great.
Realised today that I'm still flexible and all, but my core stability and control and sense of balance are waaay off. Oh dear.
Had a nice time with Maddy, who promised to be my dancing buddy until we're grannies. Dancing grannies, that would be cool (:
Also, Elisa & I have revamped the main page! (Click!)
Spot the differences! (I insist the "News!" that I drew is obviously a torn piece of newspaper, but Elisa doesn't think it's very evident.)
And, we have necklaces now! Cool innit?
New earring designs too! (: I'm quite pleased with my "Giselle", which I made up as I went along, and it looks completely different from what I originally had in mind. They look so much like little cygnets in black tutus and shiny pointes! -beams- And someone bought it within an hour of us putting it up on the web (wah so pro)! Perhaps more aspiring ballerinas will be smitten (:
(And I have a question! I shouldn't be asking this, I know, but I've always pronounced "Giselle" with the G sounding like the J in "jeans", but Elisa says it's pronounced like the G in "goat". Which is it?)
Does anyone think it's time I stop fiddling about with wire and beads and start doing my work for once?
