Formations in a routine allow dancers to show off their own technique in addition to their ability to move as a team. They should be able to move quickly yet clean. 

Dance is an exchange between the performer and the audience. Facial expressions create a bridge that connects the dancer with their audience. When a dancer expresses joy, the audience feels it; when they show pain, the audience empathizes. This connection is what makes a performance unforgettable.

Most of us are taught that adding facials (AKA working on your facial expressions) is a part of the training process that comes at the end. However, facials are actually an important piece of the puzzle!

Facials could take some time to get used to! So you are going to look in the mirror play your favorite song and you are gonna make different facials so you might smile you might look scared you might look shy whatever it is that you feel while listening to that specific part! 

You don't have to focus on your movement, you are only focusing on your beautiful face!

Once you've gotten comfortable with your facials, NOW add in movement and put them together!

Pick the emotion the song is describing and add it to your movement!

You my feel silly but the more you do it the easier it will get. 

Last drill, write down emotions on a piece of paper and but them in a hat or bowl or bag. (example: happy, sad, mad, disappointed, scared)

Pull out a piece of paper with an emotion on it, pick a song that goes with that emotion and dance the whole song with that emotion.
