The Feeling Behind The Movement

Every move in dance requires you to have feeling behind it. Every dance tells a specific story. The video I posted is a dance from the TV show, "So Tou Think You Can Dance," as you can tell, it is a very emotional piece, that has an emotional story/message behind it. The story that I see in this piece, is to lovers, whose love is broken, however the man is fighting for his one true love when the woman is losing faith.

If you dance with no emotion, there is no point, every dance has something more to it then just moving your body. That is one of the main reasons not everybody can be an amazing dancer, because they don't feel the movements, they just perform the movements to the best of their ability. They think having no emotion is alright, when emotion is what makes the piece so remarkable.
