i remembered being a young dancer 6 yrs ago (gosh! has it been that long?? or longer??) scouring glitterlisa.com for videos to learn from. and that was before there was youtube!

this was one of the first videos i watched. and i remembered telling myself that i wanted to dance like that! =) elegant, clean, a seamless connection and flow of energy with my partner, yet filled with little surprises here and there. the tricks esp used to fascinate me to no end!

viewing the video again after so many yrs, well, feels different. the basic elements i like are still there, but there's a certain something-something that's missing, like a sparkle or an X factor. or perhaps it just looked too rehearsed. the performance could have been a whole lot more exciting just in terms of energy level.
