Dancers....

I encourage all belly dancers and wanna be belly dancers to read this blog post, it is so true! http://www.blogger.com/img/blank.gif

I know in Wild Sky Tribal we have some added on truths too. In WST, for performances, we dance with the WST musicians, yes, they are our musicians! but working with live music opens a whole different can of worms that dancers are usually not used to.

While the musicians can stop and start over, doing it 50 times can be tiring the folks playing, so you may only have a few times to get it right while dancing to the music.

Sometimes musicians forget repeats, or where a particular ending is! If you are an ATS dancer, just roll with it, you never know what fun you can get yourself into! It might be an issue if you have to choreograph.

You all might not be on the same wavelength... don't forget to communicate, and be respectful of each other, Magic can happen when dancer and musician work together, and yes, both sides have to compromise!

You don't get to see Dancers with real live musicians much any more, when you do see them, tip well, it's a dying way to see a belly dance show.

Well I hope you liked the post, cheers!
