We’d like to comment on the variety of dance disciplines that the dancers on So You Think You Can Dance are challenged with (or any dance show on tv).
They effectively show the importance of dancers cross-training in multiple styles of dance. The more experience they can gain in dance forms outside of their specialty, the more well-rounded and versatile dancer they become. If the dancers who take part in these tv shows are truly interested in studying dance or theater it will make them a better asset to any company or show.
It also helps them to learn choreography more efficiently and improves their technical work across all varieties, not to mention what it can do for their confidence and coordination!
We love it!
BY THE WAY
Also – on a whim we are learning the Hoedown Throwdown courtesy of Hannah Montana just for fun! We’ll try to post a picture of us goofing off with that soon!
