Dancers, I don't know what to do!


Question Posted Friday August 3 2007, 2:56 am

1. whats the difference between lyrical and modern dancing? and which one is funner? it helps to show like videos from youtube... but i cant find the difference, since they both sound the same.

2. i wanna do dance next year, because of that show called So you think you can dance. i've danced for about 3 years in my life and then stopped but i want to continue again, at a different place. the place i want to go to i like half the distance of the old place i went to, and alot of people in my school go to it and i heard its pretty good. its hard for my family now since my dad is working on his own company in a different state, so my mom has a lot of pressure on her, till we move in with my dad. but before i leave this town, which i love since i've lived here for a lot of my life... i want to really do dance. how can i convince my mom even though her schedule is crazy since i have an older sister and younger brother who also have needs, and she works in the night (shes a nurse) and etc? please help i love to dance.. im mad that i quit before..

3. i think i may be taking too many things.. in your opinion like what are the best and worst things out of these dance styles i'll post below? and which would you reccomend me to do?
-modern
-hiphop
-lyrical
-musical theatre
-jazz
-ballet

THANKS! :)

Lyrical is softer than modern. Like the perosn below me said, lyrical is pretty much a mix between the two styles of ballet and jazz. And Modern is a little more like jazz. I prefer lyrical more, but that's just what i think.

I know dance can be expensive. One thing that you can do is try earning money by doing little jobs like babysitting for neighbors, or cleaning up yards. I know that that won't give you all of the money you need, but every little bit counts. If your mom sees that you are willing to make money by yourself so you can dance, then i'm sure she'll give it some thought.

I've been dancing my whole life, and i know that you should stick with ballet, lyrical, and jazz. Those classes give you a solid foundation for other styles of dance. Think of which styles you enjoy the least, and that would be the class to quit. If i were in your shoes, then i would want to quit modern. Do what your heart tells you to do :]

Keep dancing chica && I hope i helped! :]

1. lyrical is more flowy than modern. lyrical is a mixture between jazz and ballet. modern is lyrical and jazz mixed, it's just awesome. lol there is a difference, like for example, you wouldn't dance to purple rain for modern, but you would for lyrical. i hope you understand.

2. i convinced my mom by telling her it was my passion, she still refuses to pay for it, but let your momma know how much you love it. i hope it'll work for you.

3. and out of that list, hiphop is the worst to me, thats my complete opinion.. but otherwise i don't think you're taking too much.

good luck girl!
