DANCE quotes
5:48 PM

hi!! i was bored so i went online to look for some dance quotes and i came across some really nice and some amusing ones.. haha.. let me put some here to inspire and maybe make us laugh. haha..

i found this quite funny.. haha..
On dancing on pointe:
Why don't they just get taller girls?
~ Henny Youngman
ok. now some that i found nice..
Dancing should look easy; like an optical illusion.
It should seem effortless. When you do a difficult variation,
the audience is aware that it is demanding and that you have
the power and strength to do it. But in the end,
when you take your bow, you should look as if
you were saying, "Oh, it was nothing. I could do it again."
~ Bruce Marks

You know you're dancing when tears of pain and
happiness blend in with your sweat .
Lastly,
Bleeding feet will bond us.
~Liza Minelli
(yea man.. haha..)

on friday, i was browsing through the 'Dance Magazine' periodicals in the National Library and came across this article..

Your Dancing Can Reap Dream Benefits
Linda Hamilton Ph.D
According to scientific studies by sleep experts, dreams help us to learn, remember and perform new tasks by transferring new information into our long term memory.
The catch, of course, is to get enough sleep. Dreams occur throughout the night; however, the most intense brain activity associated with Rapid Eye Movement, happens between the 6 and 8 hours of sleep. Sleep deprived dancers miss out on this.

So go sleep now to learn how to do those FOUETTES en pointe. haha.
