As one of my activities I’m participating in Culturama in the Latin America dance. At first I was a little insecure, because I didn’t know the people ( haven’t spoken to my partner before) and I haven’t tried this type dance. Luckily, it turned out that the rehearsals are one of the highlights of the week! We had so much fun together, during this process. First of all, we need lots of patience and focus, because after school everybody is tired and it’s really easy to get distracted. I have seen other rehearsals, where they were really serious most of the time and in my opinion they are missing one of the most important things from these tryouts. Laugh and community. Even if I had a bad day, after the rehearsal I always felt some kind of refreshment and joy from moving and be with my friends.
The show is coming and everybody is super exited, yesterday we just had our lighting – costume trial in the Auditorium. It’s good to see that how everything is developing and we’re becoming more and more confident, even after so many mistakes and falls ( it’s hard to dance in high heels). Next week is going to be demanding and I hope at the end we’re going to be able to show our energy and happiness on stage as well.
In the video I’m the one at the beginning with the blonde guy (Gleb) :D. This is just a part of the whole dance and we made this video to rewatch and learn the steps.
