The Bill T. Jones

For some people, it is not very often in like that they can see someone’s pure creativity and amazing talent.  It is a once in a lifetime thing to go to a museum and see an actual painting by an artist like Matisse, Picasso, or van Gogh.  It also is not everyday that people get to go to a show on Broadway to witness firsthand the impressive choreography, costuming, and song.  No, these things are more rare than they are common, and that is why it is so important to embrace the beautiful arts that you have been privileged enough to have witnessed.

Pointers for Pointe Shoes

I remember when I first signed up to take pointe along with my other dance classes.  When I went to get my new pointe shoes I remember being confused as to how I should find the best fit.  Of course the show fitter was trying to help me, but after trying on dozens of pairs I was in no mood to listen.  After my first year of pointe I finally had an idea of what I required from a shoe, but each time I had to get a new pair I still felt overwhelmed.  This can happen to a lot of girls looking for the ideal pointe shoe.

Improv Dance

There is a reason that not everyone can simply doing something on a whim or just start improvising.  It is tough to do.  Conversationally it is not too difficult, but if you get put on the spot with a topic to simply speak on, it can become difficult.  Or if musicians are asked to simply create a tune instantly, it takes impressive knowledge and skill to do that.  The same can be said for a dancer who can turn on a song and just simply dance.  

Google Dance

Okay, so you know my site is all about dance.  But what you might not have known is that it’s about all kinds of dance, and today’s featured type of dance is strictly FGO (for geeks only!) Still, I hope you learn a little something and enjoy it, too.

So what the heck is a Google Dance anyway?  It’s not what you’re thinking.  Or at least, it’s not what I was thinking!  It doesn’t involve music or human body motion at all.  It’s really not even a dance, just some geeky update stuff that Google does once in a while.  

Get Inspired: Incense, Classes, and More

I cannot think of a single dancer or choreographer who does not go through a dry spell of coming up with ideas of new dance pieces. It happens to everyone. Dancing is a lot like writing. Writers tend to get writer’s block, and like that you can be in the middle of creating the next great dance, and then it happens. You have nothing to add, not a thing to contribute, and you feel defeated and down. Well, don’t feel that way. Like I already mentioned. It happens to everyone at some point. There are ways to overcome this little road block and get new ideas to finish creating or start creating your new dance routine. Here are some of those very ideas.

Dance Inspires

“There is a time for everything, and a season for every activity under the heavens…a time to weep and a time to laugh, a time to mourn and a time to dance…”  -Ecclesiastes 3:1, 4.

Dancing is so important that it is even included in the Bible.  What joy!  I hope that you yourself have experienced the phenomenal feelings that you can get just from dancing in some way or another.  If you have not, then turn on some kind of music and move!  Anyone who has met me knows that at any moment I could break out into a dance.  I just can’t control my urge to dance because it is such a joyous and happy feeling.
