Let’s just jump into something new because life allows you to do so
This is a super cool way I witnessed that many pro dancers accomplished. I guess that is one of the biggest secrets of them to build up their unique style.
Suddenly, you’re stuck with generating new ideas, or feel depressed, or having a tiny bit of negative feelings about the path you chose to dance, etc. Then yes, this is the moment you should try a completely new dance style.
Like I have been writing in other pieces, there are a lot of dance styles and many many masters of those styles. Each master has their own way of performing such style with different types of music, attitudes, feelings, musicality, etc. Hence, you don’t need to be too worried about not having anything new to learn, for there is always something else you don’t know.
If you decide to spend some session trying a new dance style, you will not lose any bit of you current ability with the style you’ve been practicing with. Dance skills have been part of your movement, soul and body, so they will not leave you that easily.
Learning a new style will increase your movement dictionary, so maybe you can make those new moves into something amazing, special and unique in your way.
Another happy ending is that you will realize this is the dance style I love the most and I wanna be a master of it and surprise myself: “Why have I not danced like this before???”
There are Popping, Hip Hop, House, Jazz Funk, Dancehall, Lite Feet, Contemporary, Twerking, Tap Dance, etc. You can take reference at all the dance studios in the neighborhood, all the online channels, all dance parties / dance battles (Take note that if you like someone’s style so much, you should ask them what that is after they dance :)) )
Hope you will succeed trying new dance style and get your heart full of love with dancing.
