Re: Cal Bhangra @ Warrior Bhangra 2010
An okay job for your first time definately have something to work with on this team.
Some constructive feedback on your team: overall i didnt really like it was a clean preformance, not in terms of mistakes, but in terms of being in sync with each other and energy level. Alot of times the moves were preformed different ways between the guy dancers, but being in sync takes time with a new team im sure you'll fix that once your team builds more chemistry. I think what you guys did is pack the mix with blockbuster songs to hype of the preformance, but you didnt kill the song when it did come on, i felt like it was more going through the motions. When i hear songs like amplifier, chitte suit, gaddi, nachdi naal and panga im expecting something off the hook its usaully the vocal point of the dance and the segment that stands out, i didnt get that here. Guys doing punjaab with the kunday don't flick your wrists when you bring them down keep your wrists firm and push them up then down(not everyone did it just a couple of guys). Another point with the guys when you guys are going down into ur baatka keep your back straight and bounce on the front of your feet, to many times in tis performance the guys and girls almost lost there balance due to the fact that you did not have straight backs and proper technique. The girls need to work on there stamina to keep up alot of times they gave up on moves from 7 50 on, you should KILL the set its the ending, but alot of the girls couldnt finish the jumps and were lazy about the rest of the ending. Just improve on your moves being togather and dont make the mistake of letting your nakhra change the move to a point where its completly different then each other.
phew well that was a rant hopefully you take my critism the right way and improve upon this preformance for next time. You definatly have a chance to be a great co-od team on the circuit just put in the time.
Overall a very entertaining prefomance, loved 5 13 to 5 28, the amplifier segment and also 3 22 to 3 28 you guys killled it, looking forward to seeing your next preformance at CSUN.

Overall:
> you guys need to figure out your style. If you want to be a folk team then you need to execute your moves in that manner. It takes time for a team to find a style but dont try to force anything
> you need to get all dancers onto the same level and make sure everyone is doing the moves the same way. This is probably one of the hardest things to do but get everyone into one line and do the move over and over again until its being done the same
> make your transitions smoother in your mix. It seemed as though someone was pressing stop and play between every song
> formations can be more creative, and make sure you are watching your lines and making the formations clean
> you need to really listen tot he music when you choreograph, try to learn which moves work with what beats. It seemed at parts moves were just randomly thrown on.
Routine
-I didnt like the team coming out and doing jhummer while the sher was going on. The sher finished, music stopped, then you guys went to the back and kind of re-started. it took away from the flow.
- Move at 1:40, the girls at the back with shikke did not work
- the lehriys footwork done at the beginning of Panga, was not executed properly and did really work with the music
- girls werent holding katos properly. You need to hold them lower, and balance them with your thumb
- at 2:37 you guys come up doing 'kohre'. Kick your legs up and not out
-3:07 the bethka hand movements looked really messy
- seeti, way too fast to be doing a jugnee
-4min the leaning jugnee, NJ brought it out in 2006, its been over done and the effect has been lost, try not to use it
- 4:20 look at your hands when you do fasla
- 6:53 ish, even though the guys and girls are doing a different move, both should be lifting up the same leg
- 7:40 you guys repeated that move many times in the routine
You guys will only get better with experience
