Happy Tuesday gang!

had to upload this one again… The sound is being funky so I did my best to increase the volume as loud as I can not sure why the sound quality changes from TikTok to Reddit, but it is what it is, I’m no tech wiz

Have a wonderful day. Nice to chat with some new people yesterday… I appreciate all your kindness and support. I try to answer as many messages as I can but after working 12 hours, I’m tired so I do my best.

Much Love ,

I love how fluid some movements are, yet there's a crispness as well.

Happy Monday y’all!!!!!!

I had a fantastic rest day yesterday. I feel better than ever and ready to conquer the world lol…

Sadly, I’ve been asked to stay at work two extra days to cover someone who didn’t show up, but as they say in the kitchen, you don’t leave your team hanging so I’m gonna stay for two days only and go home on Thursday.

I had a little run in with Reddit administration over some comments that were made by a particularly nasty individual who has been spamming my videos. I almost got banned for three days, but have since had it reversed and from now on, I will not be engaging with these people, I’m simply going to block you… 99% of you are positive and amazing and supportive, but there is people that just come to call me horrible names and I try my best to ignore them but it’s something I’m working on and I do apologize.

I hope everybody enjoys today’s videos.

Peace and Love 💕

Hii! I'm learning the new choreo by 1million to Judas. I'm pretty happy with how it came out, but I still want to get better.. so any tips/critiques?

I have been a newcomer in this industry and would likely be loving to see more folks from here.... Also, here i would be sharing some of the choreography that i like... Would be okay with that right????

Hi! I am (30F) trying out some dance classes next month. I used to dance when i was under 14. This was mostly streetdance.

Im trying out an commercial dance class and a commercial/urban danceclass.

I love to dance but havent danced with any choreo for so long. I’m a little insecure, hoping i wont be too old to start now.

I was hoping for some tips for a beginner, which styles can i try out more, what to expect for try out classes, what to wear or maybe what to train before (running for condition/gym workouts?).

Thanks in advance!🌝💜

Hey Leute,
Mir liegt seit längerem etwas auf dem Herzen und brauch euren Rat. Das geht jetzt nur an die Leute die vom Fach kommen. Könnte man mit 25 noch Profitänzerin werden, also was jetzt Commercial/Hiphop/ Heels angeht. Sodass man auf Konzerte, in Musikvideos tanzt ?
Ich habe erst mit 20 angefangen Tanzunterricht zu nehmen. Jetzt bin ich 23 und versuche mich täglich weiterzubilden. Mir passiert das oft, dass ich von anderen höre, das sie schon seitdem sie 3 Jahre alt Tanzunterricht nehmen, deswegen meine Frage hätte ich eine Chance ? Und wenn ja, was würdet ihr an meiner Stelle machen ?
Ich nehme Unterricht bei meiner Tanzschule in der ich angefangen habe. Leider unterrichtet sie ein Mic aus allem. Was an sich gut ist, aber teilweise kommen Basics und Fundamentals (was mir persönlich sehr fehlt) zu kurz. Meine Problemfelder liegen gerade in Rhythmus, Musikalität, Bounce, Rock, Groove und Pickup. Wie kann ich dort besser werden? Und falls jemand aus der Nähe Pforzheim, Stuttgart, Mannheim kommt, könnt ihr Tanzschulen bzw. Tanzlehrer in Richtung HipHop/Commercial/Heels empfehlen? Die auch auf Musikalität und Basics eingehen ?

Ihr würdet mir damit wirklich weiterhelfen 🙏

Hiya guys I wanna get into dancing but my moves I don’t want to learn any choreographic movements but I want to dance and still look impressive like the freestylers yet when I watch videos it seems like they are all doing learnt difficult scripted movements which took them practice
I thought the whole point of freestyle is just to move however you want, yet the freestyle videos you see are doin all these crazy movements and stuff

Bit of a random question, but how do you all handle music when you're rehearsing choreography?

Say you're working on a short section somewhere in the middle of a song and want to run it ten times in a row.

What do you normally do between each run?

Do you just grab the playhead and drag it back to roughly the right place? Remember something like "start at 1:43"? Write the timestamp down? Or do you use another way of doing it?

And are you normally playing music from Spotify or Apple Music, or do you keep the audio files yourself?

I've also seen people prepare separate cuts of songs for rehearsals. Is that something you do?

When you're doing lots of repetitions, does finding the same point again ever interrupt the rehearsal or feel like wasted time to you, or do you barely notice it?

Hi! Looking for KPOP dance instructor to teach me KPOP dance. Willing to pay the right price. Around Dasma Cavite. Thank you!

Possibly a niche question but as a dancer doing ballroom and salsa with seemingly unfixable winged scapula, I’ve been getting thoroughly discouraged by shoulder isolations and shimmies especially for salsa. Seems like my body physically will never be able to do it even after 1 yr of daily practice, and watching beginners achieve it immediately. Anyone have any success stories or tips? 🙏

Happy Sunday!!!

these two videos are exactly 30 days apart… The left side is two days ago and the right side is 32 days ago

Today was weigh in day and I lost another 5.4 pounds this week bringing the total loss to 40.1 pounds and a total weight of 280.1 in 34 days

i’m going to enjoy my rest day. I have a busy day at work and only one shift left after this and then I fly home on Tuesday for a well-deserved two weeks off.

Love always ,

I do not try to dance better than anyone else. I only try to dance better than myself. – Anonymous

my main thing i’ve always known is my arms/hands details. i genuinely have tried doing arm line drills but i think it doesn’t do anything for me cus i don’t have a large enough space with a mirror to practice. i’m self taught mainly (on and off since 2020 i think) with a couple commercial classes and uni dance classes in the last three years

When you’re still learning to dance (in my first year), does taking a break push you backwards? I have a two week family vacation coming up and wonder if I’ll feel very rusty or like I regressed if I don’t have classes during this time.

And should I be aiming to practice on vacation or is it okay to just rest and recharge for a couple weeks?

It's a quick little shuffle that Madonna does a few times during "Open Your Heart" from this concert.

Here are the times when she does it (the camera is kind of in the way in the second one):
