Belly Dance Classes with Sahira | Emotion in Dance - The Eyes

As dancers, we spend so much of our time focusing on the technique of the dance that we often miss out on one of the most powerful tool in our dance belts - EMOTION. Maybe you've witnessed this before. You see a performance and the dancer has technique coming out of their pores, but there is something missing from their dance and it fails to connect with you on a deeper level. Or how about this? You watch a dancer who keeps the movement simple but is just so full of joy or passion that you could watch them forever! Sound familiar? Emotion is a universal way to connect within the dance, be it to the music or to our audience and there are so many ways we can infuse our dancing with emotion and theatricality. In this video we will explore one of my favorite ways to fill your dance with deeper emotional content using a part of the body too often ignored in our dance practice - THE EYES. They say the eyes are the windows to our soul. So let's open those windows and dance through them! ***** Like it, love it, want more of it?
