Self Evaluation On West Side Story Dance. 


Personally I don't think I am a very strong dancer, as a class we perfomed a dance including the Sharks and Jets from West Side Story, it was a struggle to understand the concept of every move but eventually I understood.  I enjoyed doing this dance routine, due to its jazz and balletic nature.
When I watched the video back of the routine, I focused on what I was doing and set some targets along he way. One of the targets was to emphasise every movement, this would look much better, to ensure I do this in the future I will watch videos online of people dancing to songs from West Side Story.
Another target was to improve my balance, I struggle with my balance but to improve this I will work on my core strength, by getting it strong will improve my balance.
Finally I will work on my facial expressions, throughout the performance my face was telling the audience that I was struggling, in the future I will keep my facial expressions calm and relaxed. I will practice a few routines after half term focusing on my facial expressions.
Overall I think I performed ok, I knew the routine but when it came to performing it my mind went blank.
