Marzipan : Event : DANZATION 2008 by NRA

Yo guys please support NRA's annual concert :) It will definitely be a great show. Not to be missed, so get your friends and head down ! Wuhoooo! Exciting stuff.

The low-down :

Danzation was first held in 2006, with the purpose of providing a platform for dancers in NRA Dance Club to showcase their talent and love for dance to everyone. This year, NRA has decided to take it one step further, by having a unique collaboration between dance clubs that has never been done before. Together with 10 distinguished dance crews from other schools all over Singapore, NRA Dance Club aims to bring you yet another dance extravaganza not to be missed. Under the guidance of Principal Choreographer, Ann Tan, NRA's alumni and senior choreographers will come together in showcasing their different dance styles. Despite the differences in culture between the various schools and dance clubs, we believe that all dancers still share one thing in common - the passion for dance. And with that, Danzation 2008 will be the biggest dance production that you have been waiting for.

The NRA Hip Hop Club will hold their bi-annual Concert Production - Danzation 2008 this year. The theme to this year's Danzation is "Breaking The Boundaries & Unity".

The details are :

Date : 19 and 20 Dec 2008

On another topic, What makes a dancer?

A person may be able to move well to the music if he has good rhythm.
But a dancer is a person who moves with FEELING. Being a dancer is about feeling the music, and having rhythm. I guess maybe thats why some people can "fake" through. Rhythm and Feel is totally 2 different things

Something to think about :)

Hey I do agree that its about feeling the music and having rhythm. Well I am pretty emotional into feeling the music and moving my body with the flow.

Haha...just that my rhythm and coordination are really bad and slow tho I have taken some basic intro lessons in hip hop dance. Nevertheless I still love to dance to the music.

U can teach a person rhythm but u can't teach a person to feel the music. It comes within that person's heart and soul. Passion is the key. Guess that's y I love jazz dance which explores dramatic and expressive movements.

Continue yr quest in dance and be the best dancer u can ever be!!!

Yeap well said :) jazz is one of those dance styles that you just HAVE to portray some degree of feelings at least. haha dont worry aj, rhythm and co-ordination are quicker to learn than feel. Practice makes perfect. yup and u can teach people technique, but u can only guide a person to feel, not teach :)
