Sunday Practice
Working hard toward your dancing goal, obviously involves
practice. Make your practice count.
How? Repetition. Muscle memory. Finding the
correct sensation and repeating it over and over. We are familiar with all
these things, but because they are so familiar, we forget not only how important
they are, but also how much
repetition it takes to get it right.
As it says above, getting it right is only part of the
puzzle. There must be enough repetition so that you can’t get it wrong. Think about when you first learned to ride
a two-wheeler. At first it was difficult, but with practice, you got it right.
Then, because you rode your bike a lot, now you couldn’t forget how, even if
you wanted to. And you’ll always
remember - no matter how old you might
get to be – 40? 50? Or beyond.
From the Big Blue Book of Ballet Secrets:
Motivational Secret #107:
“Practice until you can’t get it wrong.”
