Maia Alexandra and I have started critiqing each other during shows and I thought our findings may help some of you.

So we have a writing tablet and pen ready.. As one dances the other is writing...” I like that...” don't like that....’ could have done this....’ don't hold back...' etc.
Then while taping another dancer we had another brain storm... have the critiquer video and talk... that way it is in the moment and no need to look away to write !
This was great help. At the last show we were at I danced in 3 different parts. With each next performance I had the feedback fresh in my head and was able to apply it right away... not a week later!!

Re: sharing a teaching technique with you all....
Wed, February 18, 2009 - 7:08 AMI love that idea...I always just look at my own videos, but, another dancer's feedback would be objective....possibly painful...but, oh well. -

Wed, February 18, 2009 - 7:38 PMif you appreciate their opinion and you both agree to be honest.. it really isn't a problem. We don't need people telling us "how wonderful" we are.. we the truth so we get better.

no actually it was really helpful..Each time we critique,when I dance again.. those little things come back into my mind.
