=MOVED TO SPORTS=

a mod can move it to the lounge or something if they want.
I didn't think it belonged in Entertainment,
and I view dance as a sport. a damn good one too. lol

^haha

That's a tough one, I'm torn between two:

1) layout: you kick one leg up to your face, extend it forward while arching your back and land in a front split.

2) A la seconde turns: you start in fourth and push up with your leg extended straight at 90 degrees behind you. Whip it around (keeping it straight and at 90 degrees with your back up) and keep turning with it straight out until you can't go anymore. Then whip it into passe (pointed at your knee) and do as many pirouettes as you can. I usually get arond 14. It's so much fun!

I'm not much of a technical dancer (or a dancer even), but I enjoy doing/watching:

Tuck jumps - step out with one leg, cross behind with other, step out, step + jump, and tuck other leg underneath and raise arms. sorta hard with words, but hey, they're fun to do. :)

Fuente turns? - i asked my teacher about them, stationary turn on one leg with other leg out and wrapping around when turning.

Fun, Hip Hop, Bboy/Bgirl moves:

3 step, flare, windmill, baby freeze, nike kicks ftw!

even though i can't do any. :)

If you watch Hitch, you can learn the "q-tip". wink.gif

Okay, but seriously, I know the waltz, the cha-cha, the salsa; basically I can ballroom dance. I don't know if that's what you want but if you want me to explain those dances to you, get ready to read a three-page essay.

I forgot the shakira booty shake (don't know the actual term) that is so much fun to do.

Jackie, I second that about the Shakira move. rolleyes.gif

Hm...I have a bunch. I love doing things in arabesque, I don't know...I just like it. Haha, also attitude turns. And in tap, long riffs and whatnot. I also am quite fond of layouts. I like lots as you can tell...what else...I also love salsa when it comes to ballroom/latin.

We're all in this together by the highschool musical dance!
I taught myself all the dance moves, including the difficult "Wildcats!" part.

Its mostly about moving your arms around, and pointing & jumping etc. Not really all that hard to learn. Ya'll should try it, its a great exercise lol =D.

^ That dance was lame. ermm.gif All they did was wave around their arms and jump around. I'd expect better from the weeks of training they had.

The layout. Not that I can do it.. laugh.gif
