SteemDance - Blunt Blowin

Today I want to share the first episode of SteemDance with you…

I do not have special songs waiting in line for me to do a choreography to them. I get inspired by moments. Sometimes I feel like dancing to an instrumental song because everyone is able to imagine their own story. But I like to dance ladylike as well! Or moving like a true gangster is also a passion of mine.

This week my dance family and I had a great throwback. @sirwinchester taught us a choreography which he showed 3 years ago.

SirWinchester - So Special by lil Wayne feat. John Legend

It was so fun to remember a few steps and dancing this piece with our new skills we learned trough these 3 years. So of course we switched over to other old songs of Lil Wayne´s album and this is how I got to the song of todays episode Blunt Blowing.

These kinda like gangster songs haven't such a deep meaning. They always use negative and sexual words but the beats are so amazing! Just thinking about the hard bass makes me wanna dance…

I went to a dance and musical school to learn more about my body and rhythm. They had courses like Ballett , Jazz , Step and Show dance. I appreciate every single style and every kind of music but my heart still belongs to hip hop and experimental.

Dwayne Michael Carter Jr. professionally known as Lil Wayne is an American hip hop artist and author.

I have to say that I am not a big fan of his new music but his old songs are priceless. He played with such strong beats and mixed them together like a king. I just have 5 to 6 rapper who I really appreciate and like because I am very picky when it comes to music but he is sure one of them!

Blunt blowing has a strong intro and hard beats blended with nice rhymes.

The following choreography of mine was just created for Steemit. You guys are open to so many subjects and I am glad to share one of my biggest passion with you !!!!

I love to dance with steps full of meanings. If someone uses beats together with words then I would call it A R T ! Thats why @sirwinchester is my favorite dancer and choreograph of all time !

Now let´s have a look to some problems which every dancer experienced by creating a choreography….

How do I come up without looking like a grandma ?
Wait, how many turns did I already use?
Is this step even possible ?

For me the most difficult part on making a choreography is the beginning and ending.

I always like to open a tab on my laptop with the lyrics and a second one for the music. Now I want to show you a few steps where I started to struggle ….

Lyrics ...

...they just wallpaper,
So love or hate me...

It was difficult to find nice and cool steps to love or hate me without looking stupid. I selected a move which I never saw before and I think it worked out really great.

...You're on the outside looking in, close the blinds
And they say never say never...

I wanted to choose something creative down to the bottom but no steps which I already used so it was kinda tough.

Dancing is for sure not simple and can be very tricky for your brain especially in SirWinchester´s classes ,cause he is very fast in showing moves.

After teaching or taking dance classes I need to rest. I put always lot of energy into the courses to get better and better. This is what it looks like...
