This year, I will participated in Kahaani for the first time. I’m in the bollywood/hardcare dance on Thursdays. I have never before in my life been in a dance performance such as Kahaani. It was a very new experience for me as I haven’t danced before or performed in from of an audience in a lot time.
Starting this new experience with Kahaani, there are some things that I need to think about in order to properly do my best in it. In order to do so, I need to become more aware of my strengths and weaknesses when it comes to something like this, which I have never done before. I have had no previous experiences like Kahaani and it is a very new so I think that some of my weaknesses will be the commitment that is required to work at something like this for a longer period of time. I am also not used to working in a group and collaborating in such a way that everything must be done together and you have to be conscious of everyone else. In order to improve this I think I just need to try my hardest to be there for rehearsal every time and to stay focused during, to not distract anyone or get distracted myself. I will also try to contribute as much as I can if needed, to give feedback to the dance leader and be part of the group as much as I can. Another big weakness I will experience during this is my dance skills, I don’t have any since I’ve never been in a proper dance like this before so I will also have to try my best to practice and memorise the dance moves. Some of my strengths for this could be that I am a really good listener, and I always try my best to pay attention and understand what is being told to me. I think I will be able to try my hardest to learn the dance even if I find it difficult, mainly because I know people will be watching it and I don’t want to let down my dance group. Over the first few weeks of Kahaani I have learnt a lot about collaborating with new people, and how to listen and follow instructions closely. I have also learnt new dancing skills that I could possibly use in the future if I choose to do a performance like this again such as Culturama next year(LO1 & LO2). new experience for me, not only Overall, I hope the new experience of Kahaani will let me explore new opportunities maybe in the future if I want to rejoin Kahaani next year, or possibly looking at other dance opportunities.
