Key Concepts In Liquid Dancing

By: Chris Channing..
 

Liquid dancing is a popular dance technique that incorporates many different styles of other dance techniques. It has been known to include moves such as "the robot," borrow moves from funk, and even become as inspiring as the interpretation dance style that has become so popular.

The common liquid dance routine will borrow several aspects of other dancing styles, and thus, it is said to be just a mixture of other styles of dance. Others claim that it is a style by itself, as it uses several principles not found in other dancing techniques. In either case, the liquid dance style takes root in the 80's and 90's eras- meaning it does indeed have a true history and time.

Getting down the basics of liquid dancing is quite easy- simply conform to the rhythm of the current music through soft and flowing movements. The technique commonly uses the hands and arms to simulate liquid motion, but also incorporates the usage of the back, stomach, hips, and legs. In each example, it is important to keep in rhythm or the dance is not said to be true liquid dancing.

Popular moves in the liquid dancing technique include the techniques named "builds," "waves," and "traces." The build is something like you'd see from a mime- it involves interacting with an object that is imaginary, yet the interaction is made to be believable. Waves and traces both use the hands to simulate fluid movements- whether it be outlining one's own body or simulating waves with the arms and hands.

Glowsticking doesn't sound like it would have much use in the tranquil and peaceful moves of the liquid dance movement, but indeed it does. Glowsticks are very often used to supplement the motions of a liquid dance, so as to give more of an expression, meaning, and visual appeal to the dance that one is performing. It is very popular among raves, trance music gatherings, and other related events. The usage of glowsticks is not always permitted in some clubs, however.

Getting tips and tricks into breaking the learning curve to liquid dancing is best learned through online video sites that cater to the dancing styles mentioned previously. Such moves are entirely visual- meaning they can't always be duplicated through reading about such moves in a book or through online resources. Nevertheless, the art of liquid dancing is much about one's own source of movement, artistic style, and sense of mobility. Therefore, it is often better to diversify one's mindset by being as creative and independent on the subject as possible.

Final Thoughts

Raves, parties, and clubs just wouldn't be complete without the liquid dancing techniques that have become a part of common dance routines. Thus, it's important to learn such techniques to incorporate them into one's sense of dancing style. This can better diversify one's tastes, artistic direction, and overall create a better appeal to others. But before creativity takes over one's dancing routine, make sure that clubs and the like approve of some gear such as glowsticks or other light emitting devices first.
