Strengths and Weaknesses (Jazz Techniques) - 12/11/15

Strengths and Weaknesses

In todays lesson, we had Julia and Josie. In this lesson, we were focusing on Lucy and Blaze' choreography and also the Dining Room routine. We went through, practiced and choreographed more of the routines, which look really good. Because both of these routines are Urban/Jazz, so my strengths are focused on them, rather then Contemporary. In this blog post, I will explain each strength and weakness and why they're there. Also, both of my strengths are there because I have seen improvements and not because I think they're strengths.

Strength:

  • My first strength that I noticed during both the routines in Jazz was my technique. I know this is a strength because not only myself noticed it, but also others noticed and commented on the improvement. Also, I felt that since some of my other lessons, it has improved significantly. This is a strength as it means I have improved since my previous lessons and also people have noticed. To continue to have this as a strength, I will focus on my technique to improve it more.
  • My second and last strength, which has mentioned a lot in my previous blog posts, is my alignment and posture. This is because I have seen an improvement over the last couple of lessons. I have also felt an improvement. This is a strength as it means that I have improved. To continue to have this as a strength, I will work in front of mirrors to check my posture. I will also slow down movements to check I have the right leg or arm alignment. 

Weaknesses:
  • My first (and only) weakness I noticed this lesson was my stamina. I believe the main reason for this is because I am ill and it has effected my stamina. As a result, I found it challenging to finish routines without coughing or being out of breath. I think I definitely need to improve because if I am ill when I am performing, I need to continue to perform. To improve this, I will try to not be ill for the show - although you cannot guarantee anything. I will also continue to dance no matter how ill or tired I feel.
