DK's learnings:
wan2 share more practical learnings today..

principles-
-every dancer has his or her own style, one shouldn follow or copy another dancer's style,
but create one on their own
-anyone can dance, our body crave to dance. its our minds that hold us back.
-as long as one can move, one can dance.

stage performance-
-5mins just before each performance, the crew should gather, scrape all the FULL OUT/MARKING OUT but actually let the song play once through in your mind.
THEN, in your mind, actually visualise how are YOU going to portray yourself to the audience.
[like what xinru mentioned]
-every dancer should bear in mind facial expression [avoid looking on the floor, or stressed. if tired, still put on a smile and breathe through your nostrils]
-every dance should put in a personality in your dance moves [be it the cheeky wink [if not sure, ask API] or the cool type]
-every dancer should go up there, dance hard, and enjoy the performance.

warm up-
[what we do in NRA]
-stretching from head to toe [leg bounce, calf stretch, bends]
-crunches [with legs lifted]
-pumping [girls are to do as well]
-body isolations [head, shoulders, waves, chest and body]
-footwork and locking practice [normal training routine]
-frog jump [the one you jump, with hands and legs stretched to max.
its to emphasize exaggerated actions we got to do on stage]
*depends on the choreographer. sometimes we do jazz, ballet, even house warm up as well.
