BTF is Overrated

Lmao the way Katy peeked over her chair when the music didn’t play 😂😂😂

does anyone know anything about “disco” dance, like the kind where they kind of run in a circle while doing moves, mostly jumps??? Like… is it safe for your body?? It seems so forceful and chaotic but I also know nothing about it

There was a documentary about the British disco dance scene, and I remember being like “woaahhh are they okay?!?!”

Each style of dance has specific time signature so you choreograph your “routines” to that time signature and then the competition picks a song and you do your routine. Provided you choreographed your routine on the correct time signature it will go to the music. So like Jive has a time signature of 4/4 (so 4 beats for every bar of music) and the counts of all Jive routines (1, 2, 3 & 4, 5 & 6) will match up.

thanks amanda!

The hardest thing about it is that everyone’s moving in slightly different directions so you have to learn how to dodge people on a crowded floor!

I feel the same about the trend for ballroom. I compete in that here in the UK, and it’s so bizarre for me to see kids just deciding to train full time/packing in the hours. Especially as most studio/convention ballroom classes contain almost no work in hold (so with a partner) which is pretty much the basis of the genre! They’re training so many hours in something when less time, with more partnerwork and competent teachers would help just as much!

I had a feeling this was the case and was going to add that but I didn’t know enough about ballroom — thanks for your very welcome addition! Not surprised at all.

This is one of my favourite songs!!! Who did the choreo?

She’s at SAB now (she’s in a lot of their pictures on Instagram) so she’ll have much less time to tour and compete. She seems to be aiming for a ballet career!

She’s from Seraphim I believe

@your tags - that would be amazing!
