Class 1 Belly dance show - dramatic entrance & audience engagement for improv dance- El Hilwa Di practice choreographyWhen you start your dance on stage, you often start at a distance, and then you need to arrive closer to your audience downstage to start your performance. Sometimes, if you are performing in a space where you are surrounded by people, you need to switch to a different section of an audience, which also includes travel and presenting yourself to this new section, or even interacting with them. So today's combinations are an exploration of different ways to travel from point a to point b - forward or back - in a showy and dramatic manner, so that it's not just a string of bellydance moves, but it feels like you are talking to your audience, or reaching out to them. It's easier to show what I mean than to explain, so let's go straight to our first combination. Class 2 Dramatic accent cascades and easy party-style dancing - Enta Wa Bass Belly Dance ChoreographyToday we'll work with 2 Oriental Dance modes: distinctive, dramatic accent cascades and easy party-style dancing. These two modes are found in practically any Oriental dance song or instrumental composition. While accent cascades are static, the casual, party-style dancing prompts travel steps, turns, swirling around the stage and a certain bouncy quality to reflect the joyful, party-like, celebratory spirit of the music and its flowing texture.4 combinations step-by-step and practice with music. Music: Enta Wa Bass by Beata and Horacio Cifuentes
