It Takes Two Dance with Kat

For this song we got a lot of inspiration from the rumba, which is a Latin dance which is linked to romance and love.

In the bit where of the song where Bryleah (Bakers Wife) is singing we mainly stick to the basic rumba foot steps in a generic hold. This gives it a slow, loving feel and looks very sweet. When doing this I have a lot of focus on my arms and have extension which reaching my arms over. When I start to sing I have Bryleah in a hold and then slide down onto one knee. During my singing it is very slow and ends with us walking around the area. We are to use facial expression to show our love between each other.

My main goal to improve this dance is to get the story between the two characters right, I feel that Bryleah has the right level of tension and love between the couple, and she really shows this through her face and her eye contact. I will go through the song and pin point parts where I will have strong eye contact with her to raise the tension and then break it off and then come back to it. I think that this performance skill will help to tell the story of the two characters and why they care so much about each other. In one weeks time I will be showing this dance to the rest of the class, and by then I hope to get the right feeling in the dance and show the passion between the couple through my use of facial exspression.
