Background Information
Firstly, please don't stress! While there isn't so long before we meet, we have a good amount of time together to sync up as a group. Do your best, and don't worry if you can't memorise absolutely everything perfectly - quite a bit is formation work that will come together and make sense in the studio.
I recommend to focus most on 'Glamour Poses' and 'Floorwork', but everything is here to delve into. Listen to the track as much as you can to understand the flow and changes.
Theme
Our theme is the 'Egyptomania' of the 1920s. We are dancing two sides of this coin, one a very regal Hollywood vision of the time of Cleopatra, the other a fun-loving 1920s flapper. You will hear how the music plays with both sides of this coin to encapsulate the mood, taking inspiration from both jazz and Egyptian music.
I put a lot of love into this brand new music edit - I hope you enjoy!
Vocabulary and Influences
- Vintage and Egyptomania inspired poses
- Classic Egyptian shimmies: Hagallah, 3/4 on the Up, choochoo
- Classic Old School Fusion vocabulary: Kitty Push, Sit Toe Toe
- No crazy layers or pop and lock sequences
Costume
Colours: Blacks/Golds/Metallics
- Floor length black skirt
- Black/gold/metallic bra base
- Any jewellery to suit the theme
- Belt optional
- Flapper dress provided
Hair + Make Up
- Classic 1920s smokey eye and dark red lips
- Your personal version of 1920s inspired hair, to the best of your ability as I know some of you will have other acts
- Any headdress than can suit the theme eg chain headress, flapper headband, or necklace worn as a headdress. Be sure it's secured tight! No big fusion style "crowns".
