My dance exams in July - Dance Saturday

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

 As some of you may know, I'm doing my summer dance exams with my studio, on the 7th of July. I'm doing ballroom and street. In ballroom, I'm doing jive and quick step. I find jive quite easy, until you add in the arms and you start practicing with a partner because you have to coordinate your arms and feet. In comparison to other dances, jive has a lot more arm movement and it changes throughout the dance so you have to remember what comes next quickly. I don't mind quick step but the tempo confuses me a bit and I keep on mixing up the pivot step with the brush step so I'm continuing to practice that outside of lessons. As for street, I'm doing a fun, upbeat dance to 1999 by Charli XCX and a more pedestrian, layed back dance to Don't Call Me Up by Mabel. I'm confident in the dances but I just need to make sure, with the second dance, I'm not putting as much energy into it as with the first dance. However, I'm looking forward to doing both my ballroom and street dances and I hope that I do well!

 Are you taking any dance exams in the summer? Let me know in the comments below and I'll be sure to reply to them. I ♡ hearing from you!

 See you next time,

 Bye,

 XOX, Juliette

What I got in my dance medal test- Dance Saturday

Hello everybody and welcome back to another blog post, Despite having done the wrong dance on my exam, as many of you I'm sure are aware of, I still managed to get awarded honours without any notes of improvement in waltz and samba. The maximum grade for honours is 85% and I got awarded 92% all round which is way over that percentage. For street, I also did really well, I got honours again and I got 93% for my first dance and 94% for my second dance. These grades are not as high as my previous ones but this time, they brought in an examiner who's quite harsh with her marking so that's why. Anyway, although I had a slight panic that I did the wrong dance, I still got a very good grade. The key lesson to learn from this is to believe that you can do it. That is something I don't do often. Lol. Waltz and samba Street dance What do you like about dance? Let me know in the comments below and I'll be sure to reply to them. I ♡ hearing from you! Se

Netflix series review: L'histoire d'Arsène Lupin - Lifestyle Monday

Hello everybody and welcome back to another blog post,  Recently, me, my mum, and my sister found this really good French series on Netflix called Lupin, which is based on the French 19th century novella, Arsène Lupin.  We decided to watch Lupin because we thought it would be a good way to practise our French. If you don't already know, part of my family is French. My mum was born on a French colony called Réunion which is a small island located off the coast of South Africa, in between Madagascar and Mauritius. My mum later moved to the South of France where she lived most of her life but she met my dad whilst she was studying at university in Liverpool. Like my older sister Alice, I was born in Paris which means that my passport is not British but in fact French. I moved to England when I was probably about a year old because my dad wanted to return home and work in this country instead. I try my best to speak French to my mum when I can but it is definitely a challenge because I
