I've been dancing for almost 2 years and I'm doing my first solo, a drum solo. My teacher has been having me choreograph my own drum solo and it's working out very well. I'll be performing at my first hafla (a student hafla) on Friday. I do lots of level changes in my choreography because they sounded right for the piece. My teacher has seen me perform it along with fellow students and a friend who is also a dancer. They all seem to like it and I haven't really received any feedback on the level changes.
1. Any advice on how to execute level changes more effectively?
2. Is there a way I can do them that will not make me look like I am working ahead of my ability? My idea on this is just to not look like I'm about to fall over and to keep my body straight throughout the level change, not leaning forward or sticking my butt out.
3. Can anyone post videos of bad/good level changes? If you aren't comfortable posting videos how about describing bad vs. good level changes you have witnessed?
