Once you start taking dance seriously , you will listen to a lot of criticism in dance . You will work on your skills and techniques everyday to get better. I cannot be perfected in days but requires years of patience, hard work, dedication and perseverance. Anyone who registers as a dancer is inevitably exposed to the endless thrust of criticism. But the truth is that dancers are criticised a lot in this journey of never ending fun. Constructive criticism should be taken optimistically and one should take it to get better and improve.
One should always know that you are the keeper of your destiny and you define yourself and you are not defined by someone else. You can put in efforts to improve your performance by practising regularly . Do not take your criticism personally. If they are related to techniques then rehearsing regularly will only take you there. Even professionals get criticised . Your teachers just want the best for you and they are on your side only. There are situations wherein students think that the teacher does not like them . At SSDA teachers are like friends who want you to be the star they see in you.
Last but not the least , you need to be kind to yourself and take it slow. Inner strength is very crucial when you are out there performing in front of a huge audience.
