As an animation nerd I love this video. Very similar to animation principles: anticipation, squash and stretch, easing in ease out etc..

[larissafonseca]

I feel like this is the best video on dance I've ever seen. Love this back to basics series!

Something that also helps with executing more similarly to the teacher or source material is to practice and learn the move in the same way they're executing it. If they execute with a dime stop, followed by a pop initiation, do your best to incorporate that right away, rather than trying to add it all at the end. In the end, you're practicing so that the choreo ends up as "muscle memory", but creating these pops and dime stops is part of that memory. To choose to do that at the end means trying to execute without practicing it basically.

It's so satisfying to watch and listen to it. The way you describe and show it it's like an oil painting 👏👏

I've felt like I've plateaued in my dancing for the past few months. I can execute the moves, but never knew where to apply textures. This video was a great first step! Lot's of simple, but useful tips

[TheBlackJewelz]

I would REALLY love for you guys to make a book compiling all the essential knowledge that you’ve put into videos. Including things like this, dance vocabulary, when/ why to use texture, change dynamics, dancing mindset, performance, etc. 🙏🏽

This video is BRILLIANT. I have had so many classes and no one ever told me these things. Thank you!!! ❤️

[TheHeavyMetalJavi]

GREAT explanations and descriptions! Thanks Kaylar for displaying these techniques with such precision and mastery!

[mindfulmagician]

It's so cool to hear all these terminologies to describe all these movements!

[seiyona]

I can't believe how clearly this was explained. This was exactly what I was looking for. This is a rare moment that I searched for explanation on a difficult concept and actually found it on the first search on YouTube. Thank you so much. I can't wait to see what else you have to offer. Also, I can't wait to try this out on the dance floor.

[KaiVertigoh]

Cmon Kaylar!! Beautiful teaching. Great videos recently @steezystudio 💚👏🏼

[asmaakhattab]

Love the way she is describing the dance textures ❤

[JaPonce]

So proud of you girl. So amazed at how much you've grown as a dancer. This is such a mature and comprehensive approach to movement.

[majorjane]

These analogies to different objects are so good and creative

[charleshall]

This is objectively the best dance lesson I have ever seen.

[respect.me]

[shimishimi]

OMG this is exactly what we need! And this really also helps to build our own style of dance.

Love the explanation and illustration <3
