DANCE VIDEO OF THE WEEK 19

Hey all,

On this special day, we bring to you a special video, from ABDC!!!.

We are featuring I.aM.mE once again, back with a very interesting choreography. If u have noticed the recent series of super hero movies (X-men, Green Lantern, Cap Am etc) this dance shld ring a bell.

Now let's welcome the super hero dance crew I.aM.mE !!!



If u watch, the solo freestyle is nonetheless amazing, but what is rili interesting is what the people at the side are doing when it is not their turn to solo.

Here is a tip for yr PN performance: minimise stoning time. Even if a select group of people are dancing, the rest shld still do something. It can be simple, repeated movements and steps or formation work like what u see in the vid.

Bet you enjoyed the vid. See u again in the nxt episode of DVOTW.

DANCE VIDEO OF THE WEEK 18

Hey all,

Considering the number of people you have in your batch, I really advise you to work more on your formations rather than choreography itself; your steps can be a lot simpler, as long as you coordinate your steps and get the formation as clean and fluid as you can!

Here's a large team choreography from last years Body Rock dance competition (They won 3rd btw)





1. Take a look at the start; they did a lot of walking around and formation changing; Simple steps, lots of confidence and energy = good starting!

2. Level play - You just need to change the height of your moves to make it varied. Just by doing your moves at different levels can provide a variation to what the crowd will see! E.g. Some people do the moves while in a "proposing" manner, some at a half squat and the rest standing up. (or you can just make use of the natural order of life, from tall to tallest XD)

3. USE THE STAGE. The stage is big, so spread yourselves out or compact according to what you think suits the music; Spreading yourselves out will help make moves that are already big, BIGGER. Compacting yourselves will help make moves look more concentrated and help disguise mistakes.

4. USE THE STAGE. Try not to always use center focus, try to use some method to get everyone to look to the left of the stage or right of the stage every now and then :) it helps make people look around the stage instead of concentrating on the same spot every now and then.

Good luck for the interesting event in 21 days time! :D

CHIONG ARHHHHH! PN'2011
