I Loooove Students With Goals

by 8 Comments

From a teacher’s perspective, the best student to have is one who has a clear goal. A student with a goal will usually be more prone to take lessons consistently, practice and therefore improve. It is no surprise that teachers everywhere, myself included, love those kinds of students. I get inspired and energized when I work with them. It is important to note that it does not have to be a competitive goal, any person can have a goal that suits their needs.

Here are 5 examples of goals one might have:
1. A social dancer who wants to be able to dance an entire song without stopping at the next studio party.
2. A Pro/Am competitor who has a goal to compete on date X.
3. A wedding couple who wants to prepare for their first dance.
4. A student wanting to lose an X amount of pounds.
5. A couple who wants to perform a choreographed show piece at the next showcase.

As you can see, these 5 examples are extremely varied. What the goal is isn’t as important as just having one!
So do you have a goal?

Incredible Dancing From 18 Year Old Teddy Tedholm

by 5 Comments

For those who don’t know I am a big fan of  the contemporary dance style. Season 7 of So You Think You Can Dance had just begun and already I had been blown away by an extraordinary young dancer, Teddy Tedholm! His ability to convey emotion in his dancing is “genius” as Mia Michaels noted. And he’s only 18 freaking years old! I wish I was that mature back then… I hope he will make it to the top 10! Nevertheless, his audition performance was just brilliant.
