Rakataka Dancers Nov 19th performance on YouTube

We had two fabulous performances recently. On November 19th, my student troupe, the Rakataka Dancers performed at the Mirage show to a packed room and a very enthusiastic audience. Then on November 21st, we did it again at the Carousel Lounge for the Carousel Caravan show. Great job ladies!

Here is a video clip from the Mirage show:






This just proves two major points:
1. With staging, travel patterns, and directional changes, you can transform a basic choreography into an engaging choreography. I like the Azure choreography (see previous posts for the choreography as a solo) even more as a group piece!

2. With focused rehearsal time, lots of practice at home, and the drive to be the best you can be... You CAN put on a great performance.

Thank you Allison, Amy, Janice (sorry you weren't well for the performances), Subina, and Winnie for your efforts, energy, and enthusiasm!
Keep up the good work!
