PLease see the following youtube clips to see Bronya demonstrating many beautiful dances for us.( more will be added as soon as our Mariana is ready. TQ Mariana)
It is indeed an eye opener to see how a dance looks when it is danced from the heart - the dance speaks to you . It is such a pleasure to watch Bronya dance.
Bronya is indeed a firm teacher with a sense of fun and she has the passion to instill the importance of technique in all dance forms as Technique is the most important foundation for all dancers.
Bronya has imparted some foundation technique for cha cha and rumba in her workshop class with us. She has given us a variety of options to use for our styling to help us dance better. All of us are different in dance abilities and may not be comfortable in some of the body movements & hand actions. Therefore only adopt the selected movements to suit you or make you comfortable and help you to MOVE YOUR BODY
Some of us are sometimes so busy trying to remember steps that we get stressed out just to recall all the patterns,tags & restarts for so many different dances. As a result when we dance we dance from the brain ! No feelings, no expression. We don't get the HAPPY DANCING feel. Now I understand why some say, Line Dance can be stressful !
However we exercise our brains and improve our stamina as we get a good sweat out after each line dance class. Still GOOD, better than no exercise !
For the next week or so, we shall try to learn from Bronya and improve ourselves - try to dance from our heart and allow our body to move from our body core centre and really feel every movement of the dance. The Rumba Fascination is so tiring and leaves you breathless when the music finishes ! The same goes for El Lada Oscure.
USE OUR BRAIN TO MEMORISE THE STEPS and USE OUR BODY/HEART TO DANCE - That's when Rhythm & movement comes together. Not easy but we can try.
I shall also share with you a simple & fun Hip Hop dance choreographed by Bronya, 1 2 step, song of the same title by Ciara (no written step sheet available)
Lastly I just want to say "You don't have to dance like Bronya. Just be yourself , dance your style, dance from your heart. And always improve yourself."
Happy Dancing!
