Attendee: Sharron
Time: 1:15pm
Today we did rounds mostly. I stil have trouble on quickstep routine, sometimes forgetting the routine, most of the time not fast enough. Basically I need to really really focus to be able to get it right. Foxtrat routine also have glitches at the end where I'm doing a same foot lounge kinda of a thing. This is the last rounds before the competition on Saturady, it is a bit worrisome, but... whatever will be will be I guess. Last year at this competition, I won Bronze scholarship. Now one year later, I've jumped over silver level and made it to Open! This is amazing no matter what. I've basically accomplished all goals that I've set up for myself in this past one year. This weekend, all I'm going to do is to focus, have fun and enjoy myself.
On a different note, Ikaika talked about some very valuable point at this lesson:
1. Visualization. Visualizing myself dancing at the competition, every figure, every step, hair, makeup, lighting, every detail of the dancing. I think this is actually a powerful technique.
2. Focus. Getting into the mood, feel only the music, the floor, the dancing, the partner. Filter everything else out. He said that he know shat it is in me somewhere, I just need to dig it out, get into the mode, at every competition, and every practice! I think this will change many of my mediocre practices into the high quality practices.
