Reasons To Follow Dance Blogs

By Elena McDowell


Dance blogs are a great way to follow what is happening in the world of dancing, both mainstream and underground. A blog about dancing is most likely to be written by an individual with some sort of background in this physical activity, which is also incredibly technical and takes years of training to master. There are so many different genres of rhythmic movement that even if one was unable to find a blog specific to their needs, they would easily be able to start one of their own.

The online world is a great way to be in tune with what is happening before the rest of the world finds out about it. Dancers can maintain contact online and divulge information about important auditions and workshops that may come up, giving the chance for a head start before they are publicly advertised. Individuals can also blog about their own skills and talent, thereby attracting potential employment.

Another great aspect of following a blog about dancing is the opportunity to learn new things. Travel may be difficult for some, but those who have had the opportunity to learn new styles and techniques can share that information online. A blog can be a great way to ignite an interest in unexplored dance territory.

Blogs can also be very insightful. For those looking for a specific type of dancing job, a blog can offer tips and advice on how to get it. For example, a dancer may wish to be on tour with a major performer, or audition for a music video, or get information on what it is like to be part of a dance troupe or ballet company. A blog may contain honest, and sometimes crucial, information that cannot be found elsewhere about the inner workings of the industry and what the experience is really like.

You can have direct links to very influential people in the industry by following a blog. Learning about their experiences can help to motivate you to get what you want. You can learn more about the work through their pictures, videos and writing online as a way of keeping in touch with their fans.

Following a blog can be the head start that a dancer is looking for in terms of learning a great move that can be used in their auditions. Keeping current is important in the industry, and a blog is one of the best ways to do that. Executing the perfect move at an audition can be the difference between getting a job and going home.

If an individual interested in dance comes from an area where there is no dance community or classes available to them, they can access the information online to find out more about options closest to them. Furthermore, by following a blog, they can pick and choose between opportunities they feel will be most beneficial to them, thereby saving time and money to travel to auditions.

There are lots of dance blogs available online. There is an annual list of the top 20 to follow, which is a great place to begin. Otherwise, starting with a specific dancing genre can be a good first step in narrowing down the information available online.
