TALENT

The word "talent' is derived from the Greek word talanton', which means "balance, sum, weight," was an unit of weight, in gold and silver, which was used as a legal tender in the trading transactions of ancient era.

The word talent' used today to denote the capacity of achievement or success and or ability in varied fields of the arts and science. And oddly enough, the basic root of the word was originally an ancient weight or money for the payment for goods and services in the ancient world. So in simple words, we can say that a talent is something which is very valuable and more then anything in the world.

Everyone on the planet Earth has their own capacity and talent. The only thing some people explores it and some not. Some blames on their fate of not having any talent without trying to figure out their own talent. I should say I was one of them n my teenage. But certainly one day my hips started shaking on the beats of drum and chords of guitar while I was listening to some music. I found myself dancing and that too with ease. I thought to go more deep into it and tried figuring out that what’s been happening to me and finally with some observations I came to a conclusion that I can be a dancer as I have very good qualities of dancing and I was very flexible with my body.

From the next day i started looking for some tutor who can explore my skills of dancing and can make me learn things more. After the Google of 10 days I finally found out a tutor who was going to teach me hip-hop dancing and I was very much excited about it.
Days passed, months passed and I was about to finish my training. Certainly my tutor got a call from someone saying about dance competition at the end of the month and they asked him if they have any hip-hop dancer to participate on the stage and my tutor’s eyes went on my face. I got pale at first when he looked at me, but he told me that some day I have to show my talent to the world so why not now and he reckoned my

    Unlike Sidney, I did not choose to leave my education to accomplish my dreams. Even as a young dancer with the passion for succeeding as a professional, my parent’s expectation of me attaining a decent education and stable job drove my decisions. Which ultimately ended in the ceasing of pursuing my dancing…

    Many times as a dancer, I find myself thinking about what my body is capable of. “What A Dancer Thinks About”, by Doris Humphrey, was written around the time period of 1937. This essay describes a dancer’s point of view of dance. Doris was born in Oak Park, Illionis, in 1915, where she studied dance. She became a member at the Denishawn school along with assisting Ruth St. Denis, a member of the Humphrey-Weidman Company, and creating works of her own. While creating her own works, Humphrey became the artistic director of the José Limón Company and began her career of displaying her artistry.…

    Although she is very skilled in her dancing, the language gap from Arabic to English excludes our choreographer as a skilled teacher. It’s one thing to be a world renowned Dabke performer than to actually be able to teach her knowledge. This is one of my most significant challenges because although I am not fluent in Arabic, I have a well understanding to be able to translate her broken English to the rest of our performers. By bridging the gap between the two ethnic cultures through Arabic to English translation, I overcame this challenge while providing a further explanation of dance steps to the performers. Conclusively, based off the reaction and enjoyment the audience had during our performance, it is unquestionable that I overcame this challenge. Not only do we relish performing, but so does the audience watching us perform Lebanon’s most cherished tradition.…

    Perfectionism In Dance

    When I turned three, my mom signed me up for my first ballet class, and I loved it. Moving along to the music brought me joy and fulfillment. My liking for it has gradually grown into a passion. But over the years, I have also noticed a stigma for extreme competitiveness and perfectionism. Something that originally began as a form of worship has transformed into a celebration of the superficial and frivolous. Dancing often creates many concerns for young performers.…

    Because I was always one of those kids that never felt comfortable doing any sport, when I discovered that I had a talent for dancing, I was overjoyed. I started dancing during my fifth grade year of school. Immediately I became infatuated with the art. Working very hard my sixth grade year enabled me to join my academy’s dance company. One day during my musical theatre class while doing a combo something wasn’t right. My right leg had a twinging pain and when I did the big kick at the end of the combo, I knew I had pushed myself too far. What should have been the beginning of a long dance career turned into a very long year and a half search of trying to find a way to heal whatever was wrong. It was an experience that I’ll never forget.…

    I could not wait to see my name. My stomach dropped. It wasn’t there. I was sure it had to be a mistake or a typo. I hurried to my director’s office with tears forming in my eyes. “There has to be a mistake,” I said. She told me to sit down then said, “I have seen you dance, and I know you can give me more.” She proceeded to tell me that she had seen me grow up dancing, and would not take anything less than the best. I felt horrible, and even considered quitting the team, but she wouldn’t let me.…

    Upon arrival, the teacher of the day, Stepahnie, told us she choreographed a dance to Hallelujah, by Jeff Buckley. She had been inspired by Mia Michael's routine on the previous night's episode of So You Think You Can Dance. Since I had watched the episode, I knew the exact song and dance she was talking about. It was a beautiful song and heart-wrenching routine. It had not only brought tears to my eyes, but also to the judges. I couldn't be more excited to be there and learn a beautiful dance. What I hadn't thought of is how this dance would affect me.…

    There’s something about dancers I have always been in love with. I’m not quite sure what it is. Maybe it’s how dancers are so driven to perfect their technique. Or maybe it’s how they have so much passion, emotion, and character in their movements without having to say a word. Those were the thoughts going through my mind when I went to go see my first ballet. It was only a few years ago and I still can remember how excited I was before watching it, during, and after.…

I started dance during my 5th grade year of school. I immediately fell in love with the sport. I was obsessed with it. I worked very hard my 6th grade year to be able to join my dance academy’s company, and I had finally made it into the company, when things went south. One day, during my musical theatre class I was doing a combo that my teacher, Jessica Childs, had given my class. When my best friend Lauren and I were doing the combo I knew something wasn’t right. My right leg had a twinging pain, and when I did the grande botama at the end of the combo, I knew I had pushed myself too far.
