Dance Hair & Makeup!!

Hey girls! Sorry the blog is a day late. But you guys can FORGIVE me, right? Lets jump right into today's blog! Today's video is of a girl named Sierra Neudeck. I chose this video because I LOVE her facial expressions. If you have good facials, you'll always attract attention to yourself. (I know I kind of said that weird, but you know what I mean.) So here it is!

Top 3 Lyrical Songs

Here are my top 3 favorite lyrical/contemporary songs of the week!

One and Only - Adele
I really like this song mainly because it's Adele! But it would also be great for a lyrical dance.

Total Eclipse of the heart - I like the Glee version
This song is a good challenge to choreograph to. It has so many different levels of intensity to the music.

The Rose - Bette Midler
LOVE THIS SONG!!! It's perfect for a soft lyrical dance.

I love choreographing lyrical dances and I can really act out these songs with the music!


TV Chatter

I won't even talk about Dance Moms this week because it would be a little awkward to talk about on a Christian blog. But another show I like to watch that isn't necessarily centered on dance, is Mobbed. If you haven't heard of it, it's a little hard to explain. Basically if someone has a big secret, or something they need to share with someone and want it to be huge, Mobbed helps them to do that; and it's hosted by Howie Mandel, which makes it even better! So in the show a big mob of people come out and start singing and dancing to whoever the mob is for. I don't really know how to explain it without it sounding weird because it kind of is weird, but it's a funny show that you should definitely check out. I wanted to tell you how to be a part of the mob, but I couldn't find any info on it. If you find anything about it, tell me. I'll put it in.

Dance Fashionista

If you dance at my studio, youknow that competition #1 is just a couple weeks away! Our first dress rehearsal is on Saturday so I'm gonna show you videos of tips on hair and makeup! These are great videos for any dancer to watch, though. I'm only showing you one of the makeup ones.

I tried the hair tutorial and it worked so well! Just do everything exactly how she says to do it.



Okay so last week's challenge was to say thank you to a friend. Let me know if you tried it! I made a slide show for a couple of my friends and I think they liked them.

God GOAL of the Week: Apologize and Forgive

This goal is a very tough goal to accomplish. Let's start with forgiveness. Forgiveness is very important. People do things that are wrong, and a lot of times we hold our grudge on those people. From experience, if we forgive, people tend to do wrong things to you less. By forgiving I don't mean walk up to that person and forgive them to their face; just ignore whatever they did. Lighten up the situation a bit with a knock knock joke or something. (That wasn't serious. Please don't do that.) But really, I want us to work on this goal together. Just forgive the person for whatever they did that was wrong because God will handle the rest.

Sometimes it's extremely difficult to apologize to someone, especially when it's not completely your fault. We tend to wait for an apology from the other person first. What we really need to do is be the first to apologize no matter what. You'll gain a lot more respect by doing this. Lies only create room for more lies. This is something we all need to work on. God commands us to do these things and he knows it's not easy. Just take it one step at a time. Maybe one day focus on forgiveness, one day on apologies. It's a long process, but eventually it will come naturally.

Thanks for reading another blog. Love you all! See you on Saturday. I have an exciting goal to share with you guys coming up that you'll get more info on today or tomorrow. But the three lyrical songs are a part of it!
