Evaluation Line dancing- Final dance

Overall my performance was Mediocre I feel that I performed at my best whilst in the drama studio as here we had more space and could hear the music a lot more clear. Whilst performing in the drama studio and outside my overall dance was ok but from watching the videos back I found that I missed most of the claps on each turn and didn’t put enough enthusiasm and emotion in the dance I didn’t show the true meaning of line dance through my performance.
The group as a whole worked really well together in my opinion as from watching the video back I saw that everyone including myself was relatively in time. Although I noticed when people boosted there energy and enthusiasm like Aditi there would suddenly find themselves out of time. Which is something to be aware of when we perform the routine again in order to boost the potential grade.
Aspects of the dance It self-the elements of the dance that I found most difficult was the slide in across the room part on your heels, I think I found this difficult as I thought it was embarrassing although after practicing throughout lessons on the day of the final dance I managed to hide the nervousness with that move and managed to not drag attention to myself. The elements of the dance that I most liked were the grapevine and heel toe movements. Also when we performed the dance outside I was given a cow boy hat which made me feel more comfortable as I could see that I wasn’t that noticeable and blended in with everyone else although this also brought out another fault as I hadn’t practised before with a hat I found myself taking the hat of out of time with everyone else. e.g. When watching the videos back I often found that I would take my hat of to quick and then lose confidence as I know that I got the move wrong.
