I am dancing in a musical and my group is made up of mostly non-dancers. I am a dancer, not professional, but I have been dancing off and on about 25 years. When teaching dances the choreographer counts 1-2-3, 1-2-3 or 123-456, never in eights. I am trying to learn the steps, transferring her counts to eights. It isn't working too well. When I ask another dancer in the group to show me a step, I still don't get it because they don't count in eight. Needless to say, they all have the steps, but I can't remember anything. Then I start getting stressed trying to remember steps--which leads me to mess up. I realize that I am probably thinking too hard. I am going to ask the choreographer to count out things with me in eights, but she is always busy. All in all, I feel that she is not breaking the dances down in detail. Besides asking her to count in eights, can you provide any other tips?

All the studios I checked either don't have hip hop or registration is already over.

As someone with extensive piano/organ training, being a qualified piano and organ teacher, and learnt a little ballet when I was little, how long would it take for me to learn before I can start to dance at competition level? I'm thinking of ballroom or Latin dancing.

I am a natural dancer and danced ballet and tap when I was young. My mum was a ballroom champ and I always wanted to do ballroom but I didn't have the courage. I'm 23 now and wonder if I have left it too late. Like I never really learnt but everyone says I have massive potential. I'm just wondering is it even possible to learn and get into national titles before I'm 30 or have I stuffed it up..:(?

OKay...so i am sixteen years old and i am going to start a ballet class in a coulple of weeks. I don't think i am going to be exceptionally gifted or be able to go en pointe this year or anything. I am really flexible and i can tumble and do left and right splits. Not to mention I have had some hip hop dance training. but what i am trying to say is how long will it take me to go en pointe. I am going to University next year. And they have a good dance program there. Could I be en pointe by my senior year? just tell me about how long it would take. I don't wanna be a prima ballerina or anytihng i just want to be able to dance for plays and stuff. THANKS A BUNCH GUYS!!

You know how some dances have this feet "sliding" effect in their moves? Like as if their feet are sliding on the floor smoothly??

During the winter, I took a tumbling class for ages 6 thru 12, and learned how to do a cartwheel and to fall into a backbend. It was pretty embarassing to be the oldest person there by like three years. Anyways, I didn't take that class again for the wintes session, because I am already taking four dance classes, and it was just too much. I kinda taught myself to do a handstand and then fall foward on my butt. I can't seem to fall into a bridge. Also, how can I teach myself to do a back walkover? I figured out how to lift one of my legs up without falling over. LOL. Okay, well, thanks.

totally wrong?????? My mom was talking to my dance friend's mom who switched studios(my dance friend) and said where I was dancing wasn't too good. I am training for pointe and my mom is afraid that I'm not learning what I should know and not being trained right. Would you switch your child to a different studio or just put it aside?
