How To Win Dance Competitions

By Joyce Myers


Some people dance for fun. This is because they understand the numerous dancing benefits they can reap. A time comes when you need to dance so as to stand out. This is when you are to participate in a dancing competition. The fact is that like any other competition, dancing competition requires one to be well prepared and confident enough to emerge the winner. You cannot afford to take the importance of proper preparation prior to the day of competition lightly. You may also need the help of professionals who are conversant with what dance competitions entail.

However, participating in dancing competition will require you to horn your skills. There are some mistakes that even the most experienced dancers make when preparing for a dance competition. Apart from taking your classes seriously, you also need to take care of your body. This entails going to the gym, eating healthy meals, and undertaking regular massage. This may require you to invest more time, but it is worth it.

You should also not overstretch yourself during the last few weeks to the big day. This is because your body requires healing as well. Even as you work hard, take time to relax and enjoy a nap. Even if you have tight schedule in your class, you cannot afford to work like a robot. Enough sleep and relaxation is important.

Another common error is comparing yourself to the awaiting competition. It is possible to waste a lot of time trying to figure out how your competitors will be and what they are doing. However, this is not right, you should simply think about you.

Also, be yourself before and during the competition. Some people get very anxious and are not able to think straight during practice. The fact is that if you are to put your creativity into practice, you have to be sober and at peace. This does not mean that you do not stretch your creativity; it only means that you understand what you are good at and capitalize on it.

As mentioned above, you should not overstretch yourself. However, this does not mean that you should just sit and allow things to go on anyhow. Remember that you are an important part of the competition. If you relax and do nothing, you will not emerge the winner. Keep practicing and learn from the correction of your trainers.

Talking of a trainer, some people find hiring someone to train them very costly. They, therefore, undergo the preparation without someone to help them out. They end up making some serious mistakes that make them not win the competitions even after taking time to prepare. You need the help of a professional to perfect your dancing skills. Consider working with reputable and well trained trainers.

Make sure that you have enough sleep during the night before the day of competition. Having enough sleep will ensure that you wake up fresh and strong. Also, before you sleep, make sure that your costumes and any other items you will require is ready. This will make it easy for you to prepare in the morning.
