Now nationals is over and things are calmer here, I was thinking about how the project kids who got top 10/25 at nationals this year have not all always been front row small group kids. I think there’s an obsession with who is the favourite, and comments about how kids should switch studios because they aren’t appreciated.

I don’t think success is spending the most consecutive years at the top of the pack, it’s the journey and the hours in class and the relationships built, and sometimes it will pay off with a plaque.

My impression of an ai ‘TOP 10 MOLLY LONG CHOREOGRAPHY’ TikTok

10 Pop muzik

9 Double dutch bus

8 Hot to go combo video titled Chapel Roan

7 On this side of chaos titled ‘Contemporary dance’

6 Regan doing a random tiktok dance titled ‘Regan’

5 Under pressure

4 Boasty

Then it cuts off and doesn’t finish

I love the way Molly comments, comedian or choreographer 🤔

Sylvie win at BDA is a big slay

[p21jazzqueens]

What jazz solos have won bd over the past 5 years?

dyllan blackburn - haunted

regan gerena - that’s life

salome rivas (musical theatre) - cabaret

[clubxcspas]

Extremely hot take but I don't think doing jazz/mt in the top 3/4 actually puts you at a disadvantage

Like obviously very few jazz/mt solos have won, but there are very few jazz/mt solos competing for bd to begin with so that skews the numbers

[elaborateprop-lightsoff]

I agree, I think jazz solos at the calibre of the winning contemporary solos would absolutely win. I think it feels more risky and contemporary seems like a safer bet for most students because it is so popular, but generally the best dancers with the best solos are the ones winning, I don’t think genre really puts anyone at a disadvantage, at least for the more mainstream comp genres.

A few weeks ago I was trying to explain the concept of stars to a non dance friend is and it was absolutely nuts like yes they’re constantly posting insane ramblings on Instagram, yes they have crazy policies, yes the owners dress like supervillains sometimes, but you don’t understand how dominant they are

[elaborateprop-lightsoff]

I’m bored, hot take if you have to add extra beats or sound effects every 2 seconds then a) I think you have bad musicality, and b) I think you’re relying on the music to have impact rather than the choreography

[istantoomuchsmh]

i actually dont think we hated on press play enough for all that ai music and same w the roblox ai on tiktok which i know is probably 11yos but the water at the school i teach at has been yellow for the past week its a city wide issue now so im pissed

[elaborateprop-lightsoff]

Solo awards per age and per genre feels like Aus/Nz comp world representation

[elaborateprop-lightsoff]
