plantium blond...
and her upper body movement, which I think is her trademark and seperate her
from other female dancers rest of the fields, is simply incredible. so much
freedom in the movement, yet with great precision and control.

发帖数: 2094 | 2 Hey there, did she come to DC to give a workshop? When? What was the focus -
can i ask? I am still racking my brain to write something for their
workshop i went to two weeks ago (focusing on hip rotation in chacha, rumba
and samba).
Maybe you can start from sth, and i can contribute more naturally this way...

发帖数: 113 | 3 max and yulia the workshop on new year day, 1/1/2007, at the yuletide ball
in DC. the two workshop topics by max are "hip rotation in chacha" and "Jive
flicks and kicks", the two by Yulia are "Latin from the Waist Down – Legs,
Feet, Hips" and "Latin from the Waist Up – Arms, Hands, Back, Head"
as I see the last one certainly is the best, but it's just impossible to
describe yulia's upper body movements in words, just a quote from yulia "
upper body, arms, hands, backs are certainly the most exp

in the link Musique posted, where she wore pink dress. The recent pics are
actually not bad in terms of makeup.

发帖数: 2094 | 6 I wish i had been to this one, too. Thank you for saying "it's just
impossible to describe...in words". Now i feel much better for writing
nothing on the workshop for the last few weeks :)
But i am still gonna challenge myself on the technical points from yulia's
workshop - as writing is the way to sort out one's mind, i will know how to
do it once i am able to describe it.
Tech point #1 - the ups in rumba
There's actually ups (and downs) in some rumba movements (don't take it
seriously until it

发帖数: 2094 | 7 Tech point #2 - the resistance of your own body
I know this is an advanced topic to myself, but wanna try so i won't forget.
The point is: when you move from movement1 to movement2, especially in
making certain types of turns, your body should first resists to move by
going to the opposite direction, and then quickly makes movement2 (the
resistance gives you the momentum to move faster).
In my own plain words, if person A uses his arm/fist to hit person B, A
should first pull back his arm a bit( | c*******l

发帖数: 2094 | 10 I don't know the alternative terminology - it could be. 'Resistance of your
own body' is the quote from Yulia. Actually she used more body language than
verbal description, which has become vague in my mind. I feel this is a
general principle and she talked about its application on one or two figures
.
Do you have an example of 'wind-up'? I only know: before i go to bed, i
would watch tv in a without-a-focus fashion to sort of "wind down" :)
