Tips to Becoming a Great Dancer

This is an article about a quality that I believe people need to have in order to improve and become a better dancer. In two words, “strong ambition!” When I say strong ambition, I mean a willingness to become the best you can be as fast as possible.

If you want to improve your dance moves, here are tips to get you there:

Find a great instructor.

Experienced dancers know the importance of having a good dance instructor. A dance teacher can not only show you new steps and techniques, but he will also correct any mistakes that you're making.
Put a lot of effort in finding this person and work on with them regularly to improve. Choose your instructor carefully if you are new to dance classes. A dance teacher not only teaches new steps and techniques, but also corrects mistakes. Ask for referrals if you know anyone who takes lessons, or if you know anyone who knows someone else who takes lessons. Check with local troupes for recommendations. If you've been taking lessons for a while and don't seem to be improving, consider looking around for a different teacher.

Relax

You must be in a relaxed state so that your body will dance better. Take deep breaths and clear your mind. Teach yourself to unwind to the music. Consider learning meditation and using that before you begin to move.

Keep practicing

Once you’ve learnt a few techniques, practice them at home on your own. Not only will you be getting good exercise, you’ll also be developing your technique and style. When you have free time, practice – just anywhere around your home. The more you practice, the more you develop your craft. Good technique is what separates good dancers from the best dancers. As you learn new moves, you must also practice and perfect each step. Achieving specific goals are essential to your success. Without them you will not be challenged to grow and be better.

Wear proper shoes

Each dance style requires a specific type of shoe. Dance shoes are carefully structured to protect the legs and feet and to benefit the dancer. Always make sure that you have the right dancing shoe and that the shoes are the correct size.

Smile

A smile is an expression of pleasure, happiness, or amusement. If you smile when you're dancing, people will get the feeling that you love what you're doing. Even if you're dancing alone, smile to yourself. You love to dance, so let it show!

What motivated Anna Ziuzina

But it was hard work and a desire to listen to each other because at first he very rigidly put the position that my tango replaced a normal life that I do not happen at night. And then I still managed to convey to him that the dance, as you dance - can change. Something that I put in the dance, dancing in my lonely evenings is not the same as what I'm putting now. Then with each person I dance differently.

I sometimes look at girls who dance with such faces, that this is the dance like the last time and I do not really understand it, because it is impossible to experience the same emotion with each first man as the last time.

Then we went already to Buenos Aires, but I could not get a picture of the complex one. Then I suddenly realized that it happened quite unexpectedly when I was in a private lesson with Dana Frigoli, that I was engaged in garbage and I just need to remember how I danced before. And then everything fell into place, it turned out that everything is simpler, more primitive and tango is no different from any other dance by the work of the body. What you need to have strong good legs, you need to be able to manage your own hands and feet. Further on that to understand as I them manage has left enough time. But it's important to understand that dancing is a dance. There can not be anything relaxed, you need strong good legs and strong hands. I had something to remember, but there is nothing to remember. The fact that for me the movement of the foot is natural, unnatural for many. I even understand why so many teachers are not paying enough attention to the movement of stops, to amortization, to the parish - simply because it's like breathing for them. I hovered somewhere in between the mere mortals and the dancers.

To work with the body from the head a lot of nuances. Someone only on the ear perceives information, someone has to look, someone very easily takes information by copying. By the way, these are the best dancers who watched as you do and immediately began to do like you. There are people who perceive only touch, which is better not to explain anything at all, give them a feeling, and when you give lessons you need to understand who you work with.

How to become a dancer like Anna Ziuzina

First they come to school, because they want to go through a basic course in order to be able to do something and then try to dance. For example, a lot of couples who come to do something together. Such couples do not always go to parties, do something in class, then come home and rarely do anything at milongas. And those who are alone, are engaged 3-4 months to feel comfortable and then come already on the dance floor. But how they go on - it all happens in different ways. For example, when I see that someone is dancing better, I always want to accept the challenge and do better than this person. To many, a certain minimum is enough. I always ask when to stop studying.

It's clear how much the bodies work in unison. I know what is the message from the man, and what should be the response from the woman. I want to always see some pair work. A pair is good when it works together. And then you can see that the mechanism is loose, everyone thinks about his. He is her one, she is different. Everything on the dance floor is like in life. In fact, this is the loneliness that a person in life continues often and on the dance floor. Because if a person is not just lonely, then he is doing something wrong in life, with this understanding he goes to the dance floor and does something wrong already on it.

Someone helps, but to someone it can be and hinders. Because when a person slaps his life in his rake, this is one thing. Then he comes for example to tango and there is the same. He always goes around in circles, on the same rake, but in different places. For example: no one likes me in life, no one is inviting me to the milongas. And maybe someone can understand something. Again, the question is how people take information from the universe. They take it or do not take it, they catch these signs and clues or do not catch them.

The Anna Ziuzina Story

I have been dancing since childhood, I remember when I was watching concerts, I always liked the dance group more than the singers themselves. I always wanted to dance, and it was like dancing. Before I started doing Argentine tango, I went to night clubs three times a week and felt great in disco format, and then I was lured to a tango club by a former civil husband, he decided to marry me and wanted this dance We danced at our wedding, I did not want to marry, but from considerations of political correctness I attended an open lesson, and three weeks later our relationship collapsed, he left my life, and the tango remains. Actually, that's why I stayed in tango.

This is not for all so, because, for example, for my husband, tango is not at all interesting, because he is an introvert and need for communication is no, rather, there is, but it is more than realized at home. And he does not have enough movement in tango, because he needs a more active sport. So apparently not for everyone, but for those who come. Most often come people who are looking for communication, people are single. Sometimes couples come who want to diversify their family life. Sometimes couples come who come because they are too happy with each other, they are interested in doing something together, and sometimes they come because they do not have something with each other and they are also trying to do something together.

What is the difference between a joint movement and a single movement? Why do people come to learn to dance in adulthood? How does life intersect with the dance floor? When should I stop studying? Where does solitude come from? Is the Tango therapeutical? What helps to develop the body for the dance? Can I bring a skill to the body past the head? What is more important - technique or sincerity? Find out more on this blog.
