When did you start to develop your own style?
I don't mean at the level of deciding you prefer e.g. Egyptian to Tribal, or fusions you feel drawn to doing, or inventing your own thing. I mean when you've been studying one style for a while and are trying to stay within it. (this isn't easy to explain )
I've been learning Egyptian style for about 5 years now and I'm just starting to think about this. Although I've choreographed my own solos for a few years, up till now it's been less about personal style and more about just being able to do it at all, vaguely correctly and without falling over my feet. (OK I wanted to put my personal style into those, and at some level I probably did, but it would not have shown much over the crap dancing )
So, I'm wondering if I'm actually on to something here and should be confident about taking it forward... or am I just kidding myself?
Tell me about your stylistic journeys; ray: please!
