International Dance Day 2021 Street Dance

Title: 'Showdown: The Boxing Match' © Liba Kaucky 29th April 2021; © Choreography: Liba Kaucky 2021; Dancer: Liba Kaucky 29th April 2021; Performance Rights: Liba Kaucky 2021; Staging & Lighting: © Liba Kaucky 2021; Hip Hop beat: Keyboard Happy #InternationalDanceDay2021! Street Dance is an umbrella term for various sub genres, such as, break dance, hip hop, and even jazz and commercial can incorporate street dance which simply put, means, outside of a studio. It's a grassroots genre. I have studied all forms of dance and danced throughout my life from an early age so I don't tend to compartmentalize the genres too rigidly. Often, I like to combine separate genres in my choreography which I studied during my A Level Dance and then took further because I was lucky enough to be able to use an university library.

Today (29th October) is World Ballet Day so to celebrate I've written the first post for this blog and created a short video of me doing ballet en pointe. Here are a few pointe steps I've been working on and then put into a very short sequence for the purpose of this video so they form a mini-choreography rather than just an exercise. I particularly took a keen interest in choreographing various forms of dance at 17 years old when exploring ‘A’ level exam subject options and so started to academically learn about dance, choreographers, creating your own choreography and writing/reading dance notation. I also loved reading scholarly dance journals around that time, to learn about various aspects of dance, including biomechanics and injury prevention for dancers. Prior to this, I’d only focused on
