since everyone else just said "good job" but the kid asked for real comments, i'm gna try to help!

i like 0:40

2:40 get everyones head turning right way right time

like 2:36 before turn AHAA that footwork was sweet i love it

3:05 when you look at each other ya'll dont connect at all you just like w/e glance at each but if when you do it again, the joris really look at each other and give a good expression there that will be hot.

3:13 tell red kid to put his back into it like orange

4:10 either all look back when you're supposed to or all keep face forward thru the move.

after 6+ u guys startin too look a wee bit tired esp jumps. im sure thats just conditioning tho. no big

Actually through the whole dance really only thing I saw is like work on heads and like turning 'em all together at certain times, to bring emphasis. Also like when you have joris if the people really connect w. each other while dancing expression wise... idk exactly how to explain it but i'm sure you might know what i mean.

I hope maybe a few things help you! Overall I really enjoyed it. Toronto's craaazzyyy and keep it up AG :)

Thank u so much for the comments and advice, we're definitely going to take this into consideration. On 4:10 when some of us were looking back and what not, we just forgot the move nothing else :-[ ... and stamina is also an issue. We just started so yeah ... emphasis, nakhray, etc will all get developed the more we dance.

And for any of those who are wondering how old we are, the 4 dancers in this performance are all 16. We actually have a group of 8 dancers, ages range frum 16-20.

Hmmm.. it may be just be, but doesn't this seem oddly similiar to the Nachdi Jawani bhangra set (even if it's just the first song)?

You guys need more dancers to fill up the dance floor or stage (when competiting). Having more dancers will also give you advantage of performing with better formations. Furthermore, work on being in-sync mor. The guy in yellow just seems way off a lot of the time. Generally, everyone should be pulling off moves with the same amount of energy & enthusiam.

P.S. - Never jack a performance or part of a performance without giving credit! Especially here on BTF where we would easily know ;) Best of luck.

Personally I feel we didnt jack anything from Nachdi Jawani. The Break in the begining of the set is similar but that is all. Nachdi Jawani is an elite team, lol we're trying to get there. I think because of the same song choice u probably feel we "jacked" a part of their performance. We have friends on Nachdi Jawani who saw this set and felt like we did not jack anything at all. So your comment does have me confused ??? And when we actually compete there will definitely be more dancers, like I said in an earlier post we have a team of 8 dancers.

yes, we dont feel that we jacked anyones set, many people use similar song selection , the songs were chosen based on audience response not by viewing other performances. If you could pinpoint some parts that may have gone similar by pure coincidence that would help.
