Our Hong Kong Trip

2010-12-08T21:24:00.000+08:00

Hong Kong

This Hong Kong trip was such a blast,
it was fun, enriching and happened really fast.
Everyday, the 25 of us,
will be together, around Hong Kong, on the bus.
From the plane ride to meals together,
each moment was filled with laughter.
The bubble tea and H&M,
bonds us together like sticky jam.

On the second day, our dance classes started,
from one step to the next, we strutted and darted.
Jazz Fusion was funny and fun to dance.
So, we pranced.
Street Jazz was in mandarin but 超帅,
the class also passed by, 好快好快.
Theatre Jazz was simple but hard,
but we tried our best and did our part.
Hip Hop Jazz was hard to catch,
but with two of our students, the teacher met his match.

Besides dancing, we shopped and toured,
day by day, our shopping lists cleared.
Day three was Disneyland, what we were excited for,
rides, fun and a shopping galore.
Fun was one thing, another was the aches,
it made unnecessary movements, a big mistake!
But though we felt the aches and pains,
it was felt together, everyone exclaimed.
To overcome those aches, however,
we massaged each other, sandwiched together.

Different as we may be,
we enjoyed each other's company with glee.
And now that our trip has sadly come to an end,
all things gone as planned.
We take home souvenirs and shopping bags,
and not forgetting the memories shared.
Back in our beds we'll sleep tonight,
all, satisfied.

-Jia&Aisyah(:

HONG KONG TRIP

2010-12-01T22:40:00.001+08:00

Hey guys,

We're flying to hong kong tomorrow afternoon at 2pm, 2nd dec and coming back on the 7th of dec.

Thanks. Have a good night.

With love,
Jia&Aisyah.

2010-11-08T00:22:00.000+08:00

Hey dancers!:)

its going to be pretty busy this november & december as we will be juggling with the orientation dance, the cny dance & Syf. So please cooperate, practice hard & do ask for help if you need help:)

we're all comfortable with each other already & should not hesitate to ask for help right?

Anyway, don't worry about the hip hop dance. For now, we'll just learn to take in steps fast & then slowly add some style & flavour to the steps. After a few practices, we should be able t multi task- learn the steps & practice dancing both style at the same time!

FEEL THE MUSIC, GROOVE WITH THE BEAT & HAVE FUN!

Its also about making the audience feel like wanting to dance with you on stage;)

Next, make it a habit to have short exercises to stretch & strengthen those muscles!

Lastly, ALL THE BEST FOR OP!! Remember not to speak so quick, must have confidence in selling ur idea.
If u panic, take a deep breathe & quickly gather your thoughts! :)

Stage presence!(: like when we dance!(:

Luv, Jia & Aisyah.

Good morning everybody!(:

How's everyone!(:

Anyway, you all heard what ms wee said yesterday right?

We have to work out to gain strength and flexibility! And also, train stamina!

Ok! I'm not sure if it's correct but I just anyhow composed a list of exercises. They are not anyhow exercises but I don't know specific exercises to train core for example! Sorry guys!

Stretching:
Splits (front, side)
Extensions (front, side, back)
-catch your heel
-pull the leg straight
-both legs MUST be straight
-front: knee aims to touch your nose
side: knee aims to touch your ears
back: knee aims to touch your ponytail
Catch your toes
-nose to knees

Take note! All these CANNOT be achieved in one day! CANNOT! Just stretch until you feel the pain then HOLD THERE ok!

Conditioning:
Press ups
Crunches
Leg raises
Planks

Light weights if you can, or just, for some exercise just require perseverance!(:

LETS GO, LET'S GOO!!(:

On a nervous note,

21 weeks left! To syf!!):

Persevere!(:

With love,
Jia&Aisyah!

2010-10-25T18:52:00.001+08:00

"Dance, even if you have nowhere to do it but your living room."

Kurt Vonnegut

Heehee, I just thought this quote was cute. Remember to practise ms wee's combination:
-the pendulum one with the Kungfu kick and the arched bak jump!(:

Practise your posé/piqué turns! (the first two turns of the combi!) and the normal turns! Doubles ok!!

NAIL IT! it's one of mr zaki's favorite steps!(: heh.

With love,
Jia&Aisyah!(:

Luv aisyah!

2010-10-23T11:28:00.001+08:00

I just recovered from aching. Class on Wednesday was good after a long time of not having dance again.

Did everyone return their costumes?(:

Thanks for helping to clean up the dance studio that day! The dance studio was super filthy. But because we worked together, then it became clean!(:

Good job!(:

another important post!

2009-10-24T22:28:00.002+08:00

ok guys, this is really important.

mrs chia will be coming in this wednesday for our dance practice. she's seen the attendance lists, and isn't too pleased that quite a number have been absent for our dance practices. knowing how important it is to uphold the standard of our sajc dance society, she's decided to remove those who do not come for dance practice this coming wednesday and the following weeks from the society. meaning, those without a doctor's mc or a valid reason for not attending practices wil lbe asked to leave. i hope you guys take this seriouslt, especially those who have missed practice without a valid reason. we don't want to see anyone leaving our dance society, so please, take this cca seriously.

2009-10-04T21:55:00.002+08:00

heyy!
as we all know, mr zaki is coming back next week to see how's our progress. soo, we'll need to have practice! but we only have one week. so, we're going to have to split you guys up, just fro this week. basically you all will be split into two groups: A and B. haha ok, so A will practice on tuesday and thursday, while B will practice on wednesday and friday. dont worry, practice won't be too long, provided we all work fast and dont waste time.
ok, groupings!

A: vera, adria, amanda, priscilla, yi wen, nicholas, patrina, annette, liying, larissa, aditi, hee won, hafiz, vanessa, trang. (amanda, danielle, aisyah, ian)
B: sing xuan, sophie, aaron, amelia, chrystal, yee chin, ashley, grace chan, alysia, yanjing, yinzheng, chloe, samantha, le yi, di long, audrey. (grace, sharon, aisyah, ian)

if you all cant make it on any day, and therefore need to change groups, please msg your exco relay by tomorrow evening latest so we can make the changes! oh and attendance will be taken at the practices, so come unless you really have a valid reason. thanks!

2009-09-22T13:20:00.003+08:00

ALL CHILDREN EXERCISE DAY

2009-08-26T21:38:00.003+08:00

ok, important aces day updates dancers!

try to understand the lay out i'll attempt to 'draw' out below. basically its the plan for the full dress tomorrow at 5 pm. (a), (b), (c) are basically the 'main' gallery sections, (a) being nearest to the caf. dancers will be spread out in two areas:
1. along the sections, standing on the big steps.
2. along the track itself, right in front of the classes.

Diagram:
flagpole
------(a)------ -----(b)----- -----(c)-----
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

the dancers standing on the big steps at:

(a) - vera, adria, amanda, danielle, priscilla, yi wen, nicholas
(b) - this is the main section. patrina, annette, liying, larissa, aditi, hee-won, hafiz, ian, aisyah
(c) - vanessa, trang, sing xuan, sophie, aaron, sharon, amelia, grace

the rest are the xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx. you guys will be spaced out evenly along the track!

that should be it for now! see you guys tomorrow at the track, and please tell your exco relay if you cannot make it for any reason, and the reason has to be valid! thanks!

2009-08-25T22:12:00.001+08:00

hello,
for tomorrow's practice, please remember to bring your mat if it isn't in school already! and practice practice practice the steps! thanks :)

ACES DAY stuffs

2009-08-23T21:31:00.002+08:00

here's the schedule for those teaching the Aces day routine this week:

monday:
8-9 am: adria, amanda, danielle, nicholas, yi wen, priscilla, patrina

tuesday:
8-9 am: ashley, aditi, hee won, hafiz, annette, audrey
9-10 am: larissa, yan jing, yinzheng, chloe, samantha, le yi
10-11 am: adria, amanda, danielle

wednesday:
8-9 am: alysia, aisyah, di long
9-10 am: grace chan (will try to get ppl to help here)

friday:
9-10 am: vanessa, trang, sing xuan, sophie, amelia, chrystal, grace lim, elaine, yee chin

*those bolded names will be the speakers

Important things to note:
1. when starting the whole teaching session, start off with a full demonstration of the entire routine, this gives the students a clearer idea of what to expect.
2. repeat/revise after every 4/8 counts, depending on the level of diffitculty of the step. we dont want them to forget the moves at the start after learning the last move!
3. dont do with music first. just get them familar with the counts and all. only do with music after they have learnt and more or less memorised the moves.
4. demonstrate clearly! make sure all your moves are the same, and everyone other than the speaker should spread out in front of the students, preferably facing same direction as them. no fancy fancy mirror image all.
5. BE PATIENT. the students might not have danced before, or might not be as musically or rythmnically inclined as you guys, or they might be shy about doing funny movements in front of their classmates. therefore, must be patient with them! remember to revise the steps with them after every few counts!

thats it, have fun :)

2009-08-21T22:07:00.001+08:00

dance practice will start at 930 am tomorrow. for those doing teachers day, please come at 8 am sharp! oh and remember to bring your TRACK PANTS. thanks and see you all tomorrow!

Wardrobe mistresses: Sharon Lee & Grace Lim

Hi everyone!

First and foremost, on the behalf of the exco, i would like to say how happy and honoured we are to be given this chance to contribute to the school, to SAJCDance, and to each and every one of you (j1s)! Lets all work together as one team and strive to become better dancers! Its going to be hard work, but we shall all persevere and work hard to prepare for our very own concert next year. I think its really heartening to see most of you come every week for practise, and on top of that, even request for extra practice :) Im sure all the hard work that you guys have put in so far, and will continue to put in, will surely pay off!

Ok, on a lighter note, do make sure that you check the blog weekly for updates! We won't be having announcements and all over the PA, so please check for important notices! Oh, and though dance might be time consuming and all, STUDY HARD. Msa's just round the corner, and Prelims wil lcome up in no time. So, do make sure you all study yeah? See you all on wednesday! :P

hi dancersssssssssssss

i hope all of you remember that we have a performance tomorrow night at RP.
(not full dress ah, its the actual show)
haha so please remember to bring your
make-up, hair spray, safety/bobby pins,
foot thongs, COSTUME (orgasmic outer layer and maroonish body suit), girls your nude leotards.
i hope i didnt forget anything.

oh be in your BLACK sa dance shirt and slacks when we go there.
keep your Saints On Stage shirt for saturday.
bring your pull-over cos it might be quite cold.
hmm what else.. oh bring an extra shirt/slacks if you're gonna perspire alot cos we'll be practising before we go there.
and snacks in case you're gonna be hungry (:

after your GP paper tomorrow
meet in the studio ASAP.
please dont take your own sweet time.
we'll practise outside the GO till about 1? depending on whatever time we start.
the bus will leave at 2 so you guys have an hour to cool down and have lunch.
sounds okay?

i think we'll have a run through onstage when we get to RP.
please make use of that short time onstage to mark your blockings and get a good feel of the stage.
i know this isnt syf, but its still a performance with our reputation on the line.
and obviously we want to leave people with good things to say about SA dance society yes? (:
plus we're kinda representing zaki as one of his schools so.. haha.
you know what im talking about la yeah.

so see you tmr at 1130.
ALL THE BEST FOR GEEPEEEsai.

(:

2009-05-23T10:04:00.002+08:00

hey guys
i know i've totally been neglecting the dance blog.
the syf period was a crazy one and after that i kinda didnt know what to blog about.
forgetting that the whole objective of the blog (other than sending out messages to the current dancers) was to keep the alumni informed about whats going on.
SO PLEASE DONT KILL ME. D:

so in case you havent heard (haha which i doubt)
SA Dance got a Gold award at this year's SYF central judging.
which many of us had mixed feelings about initially..
but i think as a team, we brought back so much more than just the gold.
its so heartening to see how much we've all grown from the experience
and how strong we stood by each other during the whole syf period.
i <3 the 2009 syf team. (:

two days (YES I MEAN TWO DAYSSSSSSSSSSSSS) after syf
we had a guest performance at the indoor stadium for the Li Wei Song Si Song Concert
where we were doing back-up dancing for the opening item which was like uhm 13 mins? or sth.
it was quite cool, cos majority of us never got an oppurtunity to perform at the indoor stadium before.
btw the link to that performance is on the tagboard.
Red was there and took a video of us. (thanks alot !!)

oh yeah speaking of videos..
the syf video hasnt been uploaded on youtube yet.
but will let you know once we find it there !

so right now,
we're currently preparing for another guest performance at RP next friday and saturday, Momentum.
we'll be doing the syf item again.
i heard tickets have been totally sold out.
(which is quite omg because it means this concert is quite a big thing
AND it means we are kinda screwed cos we only had TWO practices with zaki before friday's show)
why only two practices?
cos of our awesome exams. our GP paper is like on the 29th also. so hahahha we are really quite screwed.
ah but we'll try to squeeze in one practice next week. and before we head down to RP on friday. :/

DANCERS.
pl (hahaha inside joke) take note that the tea thing that mrs chia was talking about next wednesday
is gonna be at Goodwood Park Hotel Coffee Lounge (next to Far East)
the hi-tea (is it HIGH tea or hi tea?) is from 2.45pm to 5pm and you're supposed to make your way there yourself.
so if you end at like 230 or something, i suggest you grab a few people and share a cab.
cos really i think none of you will want to waste time travelling. ahem haha.
sounds expensive right? and its like a hotel so the food must be like :9
YAY EXCITED MUCH.
:D

ok haha i promise to update on a weekly basis or so now.
SORRY ONCE AGAIN TO ALL READERS.
peace out y'allxzxsxz

5 weeks.

2009-03-13T15:19:00.003+08:00

hi friends
please be in the studio tmr by 10. (take note of the bolded word)
zaki's coming in at 12 and we'll probably end by about 4 plus..
i know its gonna be a long day.
so please have a good breakfast before coming.
and DONT COMPLAIN (cos i know you're going to)
because we havent had dance in a week and we need to get back on track
or else all the effort we've put in so far will go to waste.
i hope you guys understand yeah.

oh exco im gonna open the studio at 9 so yall can come in early to choreo for the indoor stadium item k. (ok actually its not you CAN its you MUST -orders from the highest)
so.. haha.. yeah. sorry. no choice.
im trying to send you the song via email now
but i cant seem to cos the file's too damn big. ):
frigging 13 mins of music.

anyway hope the MSAs and BTs went well !

monday's gonna be excitingtingtangting.
(:

ps. hairballs are starting to form around corners of the studio,
in case nobody realised but me
(and yes i have a serious OCD about it)
so i hope there'll be some spontaneous act of picking the vacuum up soon ( not me again )
and keeping the studio floor hair-less.
haha thankssssssssssss

HI JUNIORS!
rapture is like, really soon! and here's just a note of encouragement to each and everyone of you.. press on, its only 3 days away! although i may not be performing with you guys, i'll be watching from my awesome seats i got :D so make me proud!
but seriously, more than that, i'm sure you all want to do your very best after spending so much time, and putting in so much effort (not to mention sweat, blisters, dead skin and blood of course) into this performance. furthermore, its at ESPLANADE! how many people dream of performing there, but you lucky ones get to BE there and perform on the very same stage so many professionals have used as well.
as rapture draws closer and closer, remember to take care of yourselves. don't do stupid things and get yourselves injured just before the show, eat well, drink plenty plenty of water and sleep a hell lot esp on tuesday night!
j1s for some of you it may be your first time performing, for others maybe not.
j2s for most of you guys it'll be your last show! ):
but whatever it is just give it your best shot and show the whole school, your family and friends the tremendous amount of effort you've put in (all the hours you've been MIA-ing from so many things) and show everyone how much passion you have for dance and how awesome SAJC dance is!

yes, i'm very naggy. so the point is- this is it!
all the best you guys! give us all a show we'll never forget and will still be talking abt in years to come (:

you can do it! :D
love you guys lots (:

xoxo,
kris (j3 for those of you who dont know)
