Keep it basic, but most of all have fun with it and show your personality.

Once again, I agree with them all! Stick to what you know. If you don't, then you'll begin to think too much and lose focus. As long as you flow naturally, you will begin to open up!

This is the hardest part of competing! In the end, you want your routines to be a part of who you are...it's YOUR way to show the world what you are all about, maybe smooth, maybe loud, or any single part or grouping of slow, fast, energized, intense, creative, artistic...whatever you are, learn (over time) to show that to the audience...

In the begining, yes, keep to what is comfortable and get used to being on stage adn performing. As you become more comfortable, be more creative...transistions are KEY to making the entire routine work...but get GREAT at the basics and add to that.

Check out some of the routines all the great competitors here have...some are posted, some are just on youtube...

Try looking through the REAL members first, ask questiosn and learn...that's why we are all here!
