I remember auditioning for Shockout and Emily told me to get my feet in a tight 5th position on releve and she said "i can fit a whole bus through your feet" and from then i thought i would not enjoy ballet as it was the style i was least trained in. Having 3 ballet teachers was really good because the all focused on different aspects of ballet. Cerys was like having a free class which was good because it helped me think really fast on my feet, Simon's classes were set which meant i could go home ans practise which helped me with my rention in ballet and what the moves where and what they were called,Joanne was a mixture of both. i was confident for my assesment because i went through my ballet everything as i was not confident in the style. I thought i did well but there is always room for improvment. However this term i feel a major improvement in my technique in ballet for example my piroutes are my strongest they have ever been. i also understand how to use my body to look more balletic. what needs improving in my ballet is my cleaniness and attention to detail. however i feel more confident in my ballet then any other style which is shock to me as i did not enjoy at the beginning of the course. i have a found a new respect and love for ballet.

I have always found contemporary a difficult style to grasp. Horton technique is a very hard technique to understand and execute. At first i hated it because i did not understand why i had to do it and how it was gonna benefit me. The flat backs were a nightmare for me,but it wast until the second semester i really felt myself being stronger and more powerful in my dancing due to the technique. I began to apeerciate more this semester and i am really enjoying the decipline because i know that i will be getting stronger and overall being a better dancer. The structure of the class really relaxes me as i am thinking but my trained is being fried to a point where i cannot digest anymore information.

i have throughly enjoyed jazz since the beginning of the course.it is my favorite style , i feel as though i can express my personality and performance through this genre of dance. i have a lot to improve on technically, for example cleaner lines and my retention. With that being said i have improved so much since September technique wise and stylistically. i have been enjoying having Eric for Jazz as his class pushes me to just go for it and not to overthink which might delay my process of improving. i find that i work better under pressure. Daniels class has also helped me with learning and remebering sequences with counts, because when i first came to shockout i never learned with counts.

This video shows me demonstrating a pirouette exercise in jazz. I think the spotting of my head is good but the is now strength and power behind my movement which makes it look weak and not clean.

Even though its still not perfect, my arms have got more stregnthen power behind them  which makes it easier to turn and it looks cleaner compared to the other video.

My kicks have improved so much since the beginning of the semester. i am using the floor when im kicking which i did not do before i came here. i am now also plieing when im kicking which helps me with how high my leg is. what i can improve on is pointing my feet from my ankle and not just my toes

This video was taken in the second week of the course. So much needs improving in this , my front leg needs to be straight, my arms need to stay strong in 3rd postion and i need to land through my feet instead of being so heavy footed as it van lead to injury and it just does not sound good
