How I'm preparing for my dance medal test in December- Dance Saturday

By -
Hello everybody and welcome back to another blog post,

 As some of you may know, I will be taking another medal test in December doing ballroom and street. I know that some of you guys may be doing the same so I just wanted to share a few tips with you guys to help you on your way! Let's get started.

  • Repetition-I think that whenever you want to master a choreography, it's really important to keep practicing and keep running it through just for movement memory.
  • Run the routine through in front of someone- I know that with my medal tests, I have to dance the routine by myself so it's really important to practice the routine in front of a friend or family member so you know what to expect.
  • Practice in front of a mirror- This helps me because I can see if I'm using enough of my face or not.
  • Ask for the music- Before every medal test, I always ask for the music used so I can really visualise what it's going to be like and so that I can run the routine through properly.
  • Film yourself and look back over it- This really helps you to see if your doing the moves and steps correctly.
Have you got any other tips to share? Let me know in the comments below and I will be sure to reply to them. I ♡ hearing from you!

See you Monday for another lifestyle post,

Bye,

XOX,Juliette

Dancing 101

Hello Jujubears and welcome to another blog post, Today I'm going to be talking through some tips on how to become a dancer. I know, from experience, that dance is a very intimidating world to enter but I hope that by reading through some of my tips, you will be a lot more confident. By the way, I will not be doing a December favourites because most of the stuff that will be included you've already seen in the what I got for Christmas 2017. Hope you understand. So let's get started.👉 Watch and learn- Its better to see someone do something wrong and you learning from it than for you to actually make the mistake. I often do this when we're doing corner work because you can learn from each other. Learning from your own mistakes- now I know that this is contradicting what I previously said but you are going to make mistakes when you are starting out, it's just important that you learn from your mistakes. Focus on a particular move or trick- sometimes in dance, ...

I let stress get the better of me - 1 Year To Get To College (Post 6) - Lifestyle Monday

Hello everybody and welcome back to another blog post, I don't really know what has been the difference between these recent mock exams, in comparison to the ones in year 10, but I've been really feeling the pressure and I've found it difficult to control my nerves. I've been doing a lot of revision, online and in my revision guides and I know that deep down, I know the content for the majority of my subjects but for some reason, it literally feels like I know absolutely nothing at all. I know it's not true but this week, I did let the stress get the better of me and it really showed. I'm part French and I know my second language fluently but on my recent speaking exam, I just had a complete mind blank and I honestly felt like crying in the exam. I wasn't even stressed about the French exam, I was just stressed about everything else and I couldn't even think of a way to extend my answers further.  Long story short, I went home and I cried to my mum bec...

What I got in my year 10 mocks - Writing Wednesday

Hello everybody and welcome back to another blog post, I wanted to take a little break from the fascinating history of the Vietnam War, today, and I wanted to talk to you about and show you what I got in my mock exams. Overall, I'm really impressed with my performance and although I thought I did badly in some of my tests, because the grade boundaries are taken on the year average, my overall grades were a lot higher. I also just wanted to show you my grades because I thought it would be inspiring to others to not be afraid or ashamed of what they got and to really be proud and own your strengths and weaknesses. If you've put in the effort outside of school, then you can't really be disappointed in yourself because you know that you've tried your hardest. If you didn't put in the effort outside of school, perhaps that's what you need to work on next time. But, I know that year 10 can be quite challenging and stressful so I just wanted to show you what hard wor...

What I packed to Cromer!

Hello everybody and welcome to another blog post, I recently went to Cromer, Norfolk with my family just to chill and relax before big upcoming tests. I had a lot of fun there. The place we were staying had a Jacuzzi, a sauna, a pool and a steam room all for a very good price (I will leave the location of the place on the side) but more about this on my 3 day journeys. Here is what I packed. Enjoy! The first thing that I packed was a long sleeved top with cut outs on the shoulders with the word beauty at the front. This is probably from Primark. To pair with that, I got these blue high-waisted jeans also from Primark. I also got this grey lace up on the sides top. This was from Topshop. I paired this with just some simple grey leggings from Tesco. I also brought two of my favourite books to read. I also brought some deodorant,a hair brush and hair gobbles in my Treacle Moon wash bag! I also bought my swimming costume since the...
