How I'm getting on with my leg tilts- Dance Saturday

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

 A couple of weeks ago, I did a blog post on all the dance skills I would like to try and achieve. One of the skills was a leg tilt. I personally think that as a dancer it's essential that you try and achieve this as one of your key skills because it looks good in no matter what routine you do. Not that my tilt was particularly bad in the first place but it still needed some work in order to make it look sharper, cleaner and overall better. I have been working on my middle split flexibility since that comes in handy when trying to do this skill. However, I recently went to a Sunday dance class at my school and the professional dancer who was teaching us basically worked us to death and so the following days, I was struggling to walk because I had pulled so many muscles. Lol. I then had to take it slow for a few days so that I could recover and not hurt myself more. I've not been as up to date with my stretching because of this but I hoping to pick it up tomorrow morning and the following days. 

What are you currently trying to achieve? It can dance related or not dance related. Let me know in the comments below and i'll be sure to reply to them. I ♡ hearing from you!

 P.s. I'm going on a dance trip to Manchester next week and will be blogging all about it. Stay tuned next Saturday.

 See you next time,

 Bye,

 XOX, Juliette

"They shall not grow old,as we that are left grow old. Age shall not weary them,nor the years condemn. At the going down of the sun and in the morning, We will remember them." To the 60 people that died during WW1 in my village. Many of them were either buried in the location that they fell or were missing and never found.  "Their name liveth for evermore." Rudyard Kipling From my trip to the Somme and Arras. In Flanders fields- John Mccrae In Flanders fields the poppies blow Between the crosses,row on row, That Mark our place; and in the sky The larks,still bravely singing,fly Scarce heard amid the guns below. We are the Dead. Short days ago We lived,felt dawn,saw sunset glow, Loved and were loved,and now we lie In Flanders fields. Take up our quarrel with the foe: To you from failing hands we throw The torch; be yours to hold it high. If ye break faith with us who die We shall not slee

Finding something new to study

Hello Jujubears and welcome to another blog post, Today, I am going to be doing something a little bit different. I've been on the hunt for something new to study. I looked up 'interesting things to study' and it came up with: How to pickle your own vegetables (?!) Learn a new language ( I am bilingual) Learn to code (been doing enough of that already) Find out more about microbiology (too complicated) I just wanted to find out more about a particular subject. So then I searched up 'interesting SUBJECTS to study'. It came up with this: Mathematics (I'm on holiday)  English (again, I'm on holiday) Complete study and practice of geography ( again,again, I'm on holiday) So I thought. I've been really enjoying history. Let's search up some fun history topics to study. It came up with this. Korean war (meh) Franco-Spanish war (mmh) The Crusades (maybe later) Holocaust (interesting, I've been studying that) So as y

Amy and Karim's amazing foxtrot and Emma and Anton's beautiful foxtrot - Dance Saturday

Hello everybody and welcome back to another blog post, I think, that whilst it was the week where somebody was going to be sent home, every dancer on Saturday had some sort of breakthrough. I felt as though people grew in confidence from week 1, even though they made some mistakes in their routines. One of these breakthroughs was Karim and Amy's amazing foxtrot. I was initially quite nervous about this routine, because Karim had impressed us all with his Latin skills in the cha-cha. However, I wasn't sure how he was going to do in a more elegant ballroom style but he surprised us all I'm sure. He had phenomenal posture and you could tell because he was supporting his partner, Amy, really well. His hand placement as well underneath her arm, stayed put throughout the whole routine, when they were in hold which I thought was excellent attention to detail. However, what I enjoyed the most was his jazz flair that he added to the piece. It made it seem like I was watching a H
