Tricks

Technique is important to dancers. No it is not the only thing that makes us look good but it does help. To get good technique requires practice. A dancer can do this by stretches designed for different aspects of dance. Leaps, turns, and kicks are all part of technique and require flexibility and strength.
When I go to dance class we are warming up and stretching for at least thirty minutes. Even though it is just warming up we are still expected to perform the warm up as if we were dancing it.
"To watch us dance is to hear our hearts speak" Hopi Indian saying
