Hip-Hop dance: Midterm

Hip-Hop dance: Midterm

My midterm.... Was eventful. did have the choreo down for our three dances, "sticking out tongue", "dessert" and "poison". The problem, however was I mastered the choreo sans music, so when it came time to do the dance solo in front of the whole class, aside from performance anxiety, I had to work with the music, solo. I usually follow the visual cue's of my fellow dancers for my pacing/timing, so without someone else around to watch, i missed my start cues, and could not keep proper pacing.

after several false starts in this manner (super embarrassing, btw) I asked my professor to do it without the music, explaing I had practiced the moves without it. I managed to get through it that way, although, i did make a few slight errors here and there, and did have one classmate gesture on what move to do on one spot where i stumbled, but overall I did well, and am pleased with both my efforts, and the fact that I did dust myself off after landing on my ass, hard got up, and did the job.
