BOOST Tip of the Week: How to immediately improve your Veil Dance (in 3 Ways)

Veil Grip and Hand Position: Practice different 'holding options' for your veil, and - more importantly - practice smoothly switching between them as well. It's all in the details! The less fingers (and force!) you need to actually hold your veil, the more your hands, wrists and fingers can move freely for maximum fluidity and flow. Next to that, practice using your wrists (palms down, fingers together) to help your veil 'flick' up instead of your arms. This will give your veil accents even more lightness and ease. (BOOSTies - we worked on this in today's DANCE session!)
Breathing and Upper Body - If you practice moving your arm/hand/veil from your HEART (ie center of your body) instead of from where you SEE the movements happen (ie your hands/fingers/veil) you will completely transform how your veil movements look and feel - for the better :) As a bonus, becoming more aware of your breath (let it flow!) will open up a world of extra range of motion (..and emotion) for your dancing.
Remember you have Feet - You'dbe surprised how much of a difference it can make to simply remember being aware of your lower body and feet during veil work. As an experiment, try 'melting' your joints from ankle, knee to hip mentally instead of simply 'taking a step' when you shift your weight for a buttery smooth transition.
Bonus tip: See what happens if you add a plié to your poses/steps whenever you want your veil to slowly drop (or catch more air) (2023 BOOSTies - you guessed it - we worked on this today as well :))

Try it out!

Chances are, you'll immediately feel more confident and connected when dancing with your veil, AND you'll be moving more smoothly to boo(s)t.

THIS, in turn, will help you open your posture and relax a bit.. and THAT's when the true veil magic starts to happen.

ENJOY!!

Let me know if this is helpful to you :)
