It's December!!! Last month of 2019!!
HAPPY Holidays to All:)
Thank you so much for your support and for choosing to dance and learn with me.
*Remember a link to this list is posted at the top of each post so that you cna easily always find all videos in one spotπ*
This month we will be starting with section 5 of our Aziza Choreo then taking a little breather for 2 holiday music themed danced Drills and Thrills! Because I honestly just could not help myself. It would feel criminal to not dance to Wham or Mariah this Holiday season. And then returning to Aziza for section 6.
Below you will find the posting schedule for December and the updated master list of all previous DDT videos, my tips for learning, cool down and stretch videos and little warm up videos :) Because of the Holidays and my schedule this month (very busy work month for me) our posting schedule will be more condensed and the videos will come earlier and closer together as I know this is a busy month for a lot of people typically.
Schedule for December is:
WEDNESDAY December 4th :
Section #5 Breakdown and Practice Video
Practice Video for Sections 1 to 5 Combined
THURSDAY December 5th:
Holiday Themed DDT #1
THURSDAY December 12th:
Holiday Themed DDT #2
Tuesday December 17th:
Section #6 Breakdown and Practice of Aziza choreography
Practice Video for Sections 1 to 6 combined.
We will finish Aziza in January with parts 7, 8, and 9 and our 4th video in January will be answer the request to look at how I personally make my choreographies and my process.
Come February we will be back to Drills and they will be weights themed for Feb. We will call "Flexin' Through February. ππ€£π or something.
Remember you can request practice video themes!! More Shimmies? More layering? More level changes? Let me know!
These drills will sometimes involve hand weights, medicine ball weight, floorwork, and level changes.
You do NOT have to add these elements of you do not wish to or if you are not physically in a position to handle them right now. You can absolutely follow along at your pace and not use the weights or do the floor work or level changes. You can do the same moves standing. Listen to your body and set your own pace that is right for your body.
To get the most out of these I do recommend keeping a notebook. Record what drill you did, what it focusing on and how much you want to work on that topic. This will help you to know what you have been focusing on and to track improvement depending on your individual goals:)
If you are going to follow along with the floor work and floor postures please invest in knee pads and/or a yoga mat
It looks like the ones I currently use are out of stock or discontinued but these here look similar. https://www.dancewearcentre.com/products/eurotard-994-stretch-cushioned-knee-pads?variant=42809921283
**You can use whatever ones you want. The important thing is that the knees are protected.
Need a new veil or want one like the ones I use in my Drills. Want to support a small business? Check out https://www.etsy.com/shop/SilksByCelestina
(Not sponsored. I genuinely purchase and love her veils and work).
*you can use any veil. I typically use a 3 yard 5mm ultra light silk veil.
There are some cool down stretch videos as well if you would like a little stretching guide and want to see some of my favorite stretches. (cool down video links are after the DDT video links).
