Is it sad I'm using this as a way to get my school shit printed?
Journal Entry #3 Andrea Sears
1. I feel that my best choreography is with the Jive when going slightly faster, just having fun. I feel that when I'm concentrating less on what I'm doing I seem to mess up less.
2. I feel very comfortable in front of the class, what makes me comfortable is the fact that everyone has to do it. However what makes me feel uncomfortable is the 'clicks' that form a bit in class.
3. I'd really like to be able to improve my co-ordination, I feel that I can do the moves separately just organizing it all together or making my arms and legs do different things at the same time is very difficult for myself. Also I tend to bounce around a bit too much, making it a little hard with rhythm and choreography.
4. Evaluate is to judge on a purely objective standpoint, criticize is to tell someone what they've done wrong or poorly.
Journal Entry #2 Andrea Sears
What stands out to me about dance in different cultures is the sheer variety of reasons, from ritualistic dances from Mayan and Inca eras in South America used to help respect their ancestors, to capoeira which is a form of 'dance fighting', to awkward teenagers swaying in a circle off-beat at a high school dance.
A few reasons for dance are listed below:
o To connect with loved ones
o For recreation and fun
o To express an artistic idea
o To stay fit
o To test their will, and the skill of the human body
o To entertain
o Stress Relief
o Self-esteem boost
Journal Entry #1 Andrea Sears
1. Dance is a great number of things, it's a rhythmic movement with or without a pattern. It's an expression, a ritual, sometimes it's even an ice breaker. Dance is a great many deal of things depending on the era, culture, and group of people. Dancing is to move your body with rhythmically and with purpose.
2. I agree with the statement that,”Sports are inherently artistic, but that which is artistic is not necessarily sporting”. Arts of any type are difficult to 'judge' which is the nature of sports, to win, to compete. While there is dance competitions, at such a high level of proficiency it becomes more about preference and less about technical skill. I feel that while dance has the potential to be sporting that it should not be an Olympic Medal sport, because to judge without bias you must incorporate rules into judgment, which takes away from the overall artistic nature of dance.
