ya never know

For the song 'Ya never know' we have yet another dance number. At first I found this dance quite difficult. I never feel comfortable with a dance when we first learn it and as we have to sing the song at the same time i found it difficult to do the dance with a sript in my hand. However I feel confident that once I have learnt the lyrics to the song I will be able to learn the dance easier. I had this problem with every song so far but as I have learnt the lines to the songs I have had an easier time learning the routine.

Overall however I felt that this dance was easier than the other dances we have had to learn. I think that this has to do with my confidence building in dance. Before Little Shop of Horrors and Things to Ruin, I had not taken part in any musicals, but after rehearsing these dances more and more I have started to comfortable enough to perform them.

I do enjoy the dance for 'Ya Never Know' and I am confident that once I know the song, I will be able to improve in the dance and be able to do the movements to the best of my ability however whilst I have to concentrate on what the next line of the song is, I will not be able to perform the dance at my best.

The one part of the song that I feel uncomfortable with is the part where we roll are shoulders, turn around and roll are shoulder again, I keep on making a mistake here as I turn the wrong way. As this is a mistake that I keep making it makes me panic when that movement comes up which makes me overthink the dance and make more mistakes. To try and stop this from happening I have watched the video of the dance multiple times to make sure I am 100% sure which way I have to turn.

My goal for this week is to learn the songs that we have had chorographed and to listen to the rest of the soundtrack so that I can feel comfortable with the song before we start to work on it.
