  • your tricks are very well executed and controlled, just add a little more energy, you looked like you were forcing a smile and didnt know all of your choreo. so just a little more energy and dance incorporation and this would be FANTASTIC. for now, good job :) and keep practicing

  • You, as a dancer, did extremely well. I wasn't too big a fan of the choreo nor the song, but I understand that you didn't get to pick it. But you did very well! Great job! :)

  • Mmmm... Cool tricks :D But your technique needs a little work. And I think I'm safe to say this cause I can do the stuff she does in this. :) Good job!

  • Are you a gymnast? Because if you aren't you deffinitley should be. Your greatly flexible

  • Your really flexible and pretty and good, but i think you should work on your turns and control and be a lil more sharp. but overall awesome <3

  • you're lacking energy, and you look like you have no idea what to do with your arms

    but the choreography and your flexibility is really really good, lol im jealous :) but the arms and energy needs work :) keep dancing

  • Lol only just realised that this is almost 3 years ago!!

  • You need to find a dance style which suits YOU, if you get me:) My daughter is the same; shes naturally quite shy and a bit timid, and she is doing freestyle dancing, which requires LOTS AND LOTS of "prescence" and being outgoing and really extrovert; you just have to get out there and for a couple of minutes just put on the greatest act of your life lol!!Good job though; at least you went out there and did it, which is more than the nasty people commenting on here have done;)Good luck:)xx

  • Nice gymnastics moves, but work on your dance moves, and especially your arms? They are too floppy, if you get me. Also try to think more of your routine as a "performance" rather than a "routine" if you get me. I understand if you are not naturally really confident and extrovert, but once you go on stage, you must try to project that confidence, even if you are only acting the part. I mean all of this kindly, I hope I dont come across as nasty, as some people on here have:(

  • You're super amazing, Like, I can't do half of this stuff, but honestly, i found the dance a bit boring, but you're awesome, better than me.

  • you're really good when it comes to the acro elements in this routine, but it doesn't look like you're having any fun. when you're on stage that's the best possible time to just let go and become a different person, especially in a solo. you have soooo much potential and talent and I agree some of the comments on here are just plain rude and nothing good can come out of them. and the choreography didn't show off your best technique, your very talented you just need to have more fun and presence.

  • you have good flexibility but you have absolutely no stage presence or performance ability. and i would have liked to see a lot more difficult moves. this piece was so simple, my 8 year old girls could pull this off. 

  • your acrobatics were amazing just think more about what you're doing inbetween the tricks with like your arms and your moves and make them nice and strong:) otherwise amazing job:)

  • What I would suggest is to take a hip-hop dance class, to learn how to put attitude into the dance. Other than that, this is amazing.

  • You did pretty well, your VERY flexible which is good, just use facials & energy. Be pumped up, and youll be good.

  • acrobatics were verrry good. but work on your dancing, facials and energy :) but very impressed by the acrobatic aspect of this :)

  • this dance was very good all you need is facials

  • you are VERY good at acrobatics but after you do the tricks you look so bored you dont even have any emotion it looks like you hate dancing because you look so tired and non-emotional it needs mor energy

  • needs more energy and alittle more flow and better chero but other than that you are good

  • ur not dancing full out. ur dancing like ur just reviewing it before u get onstage

  • You are AMAZING at the tricks but there is no emotion or force behind the movement. You are really talented but also just presentation on stage it looks like you were just going to your local dance studio. This is just a suggestion but maybe you should look for a new studio!!!!

  • its a little slow and some awkward pauses but great job! don't give up!

  • ummm

  • loved the acro, choreo was blahhh

  • i agree. at least shes doin something. nobbody's perfesct. and i think u were great. everyone is good at something in their own way

  • i think you were really good! and people are just rude. i can see amazing potential in you. and just keep working hard (:

  • very flexible! good job:) you just need to work on your teqnique.

  • well the acro part was retty good ....

  • your flexiblity was amazing, but the energy just wasnt there. 

  • @Gymnasticseverywhere um no ones being rude were trying to help her improve

  • you are a very good dancer but in this dance you dont seem energetic enough! you have alot of potential girl but you have to use it!:) i cant wait to see you dance again:)

  • you are amazing. I wish I could do what you can lol

  • kay , your flexible , but you got noo purpose ! starighten your arms , use more facials and posture would be nice :p you got potential , but you have to be able to dance as well

  • awesome tricks! But this song can be super fierce, so better choreo, costume, and energy would have been nice

  • i think that all of your tricks are really really good. all the leaps and tilts and walkovers are really great (: i'd like to see you improve a little more on your turns and your sections where you are just walking or doing something simple, you need to make it a little more exciting at those parts. but other than that, i think that you are really really good !

  • I think your lacking in energy, the song is very up beat, but you almost look like your lagging and doing the choreography but not really adding your flair to it. But I'm sure you've gtten better, and it could be nerves too. you got to do a rlly cool song, I'm a figure skater and my coach wont let me do anything other than classical. I did do one pop song.

  • Hi Shauna!

    You have soooo much potential, and you're back leg stretch is simply beautiful! As is your back flexiblity, however, I would deffinately work on expanding your repituar (sp?) of movement and work more on the dance side of your solos, it seemed to be really choppy and had a lot of down time, which I'm sure came from control and strength in the acro moves.

    All in all it was pretty decent!! :) I know acro is hard, but keep it up!

    oh and point your toes and don't sickle! <3

  • Your technuque is amazing! Your extension is really good, as is your tumbling! I would work on your musicality and stage precense=)

  • Beautiful tricks and flexibility!

  • u did a very good job. I'd like to see a bit more power in your moves, but i do see that you rare enjoying this. You're very flexible, your dance moces are very nice, and techinical. I think it's just a lack of power, or energy. Other than that. Very good. I liked the facial expressions. Good job, and i can't wait to see you improve!

  • great job! good extension with your leg. work on pointing your toes harder (especially in the splits) the acro tricks were pretty, but the dancing wasn't always believable. if you try to do different things with our face, it's very fun for the audience to watch and you can get more stage presence points. depending on the competition. in your second leaps, think about sitting into your hips like a toe touch, and you can get higher, even if you don't have a perfect straddle. great job!!

  • everything is good, it would just be nicer to see more energy!

    you seem like your bored out of your mindd.

  • awesome job you are very bendy!!!!!!!!!! Just put some energy in it! You are very talented

  • You are incredible flexible and I like it tough with a song like that you should be more energetic other than that keep working on very good job.

  • i understand constructive criticism but some of these comments are just nasty. id like to see half of you (not the ones who said she did a good job and needs a little work) do the things she did. :) you did good girl. you know where you messed up and im pretty sure you can bounce back even better. :)

  • @icandiful thank you very much :) i've definately improved.

  • @Contortionbaby1 your welcome =) im very very happy for you. i wish i could do half the stuff that you can do because you are really really good . hey can i subscribe and add you as a friend?

  • @icandiful Of course! :P

  • @Contortionbaby1 fantastic!! =)

  • amazing job... just make sure you always have a confidence in your dance... i was just wondering if this was your first time doing competition dance.... also make sure if you are dong your extension work and your splits that your foot is completely pointe.... some times like in your splits it was kinda pointed you just need to make sure it is completely pointe at all times of your dance

  • The tricks are amazing. Just one question, is this strictly an acro solo, or acro dance?

  • @xo16xo1 losers? Well....who is the sassy one now? Or just down right mean...

  • @camsnell

    I didn't ask for you're opinion. And you know nothing about me so don't asume. And i said "IT WAS TERRIFIC"

    I was complimenting this video...not being mean. "That was amazing!" <- my exact words

  • I agreed at first with the negative comments but then i found myself totally hypnotized by her rythem and style of dance.

    Like im totally in a trance right about now.

    She deffo has the potential to be a great origial dancer imo.

  • You are very flexible in the back and legs,

    however there was no energy or intention put into it. The choreography i must say was pretty brutal. You have a bit of an awkward quality when you dance. And for your age (im guessing about 15-17) you could have at least had backhandsprings or an aerial. Flexibilty is not a talent you are born with it. And im saying all of this with the knowledge of being a competitive dancer im 13 and i could have very easily done that routine.

  • guys its acro! Seriously! That was amazing! And I bet you guys who aid that she can't dance can't do those "tricks". She did look a bit tired, but otherwise, it was terrific!

  • @irishmusicalgurl1216

    it doesnt matter if they can do them or not, it matters that she ASKED for criticism, so (clearly) you are not a competitive dancer if you are giving this feedback

  • tricks are good but dancing was VERY bad...also, no performance attitude, like no energy. work on the dancing.

  • ugh soooooooo SLOPY....nooooo energy at all......but great tricks!!!!!!!

  • that was really cute! great job!

  • People stop complaining about how much energy she put in. The " tricks " and the dance she does are very tiring and it's normal to seem a little bit tired.

    The performance is a masterpiece .. it's art :)!

  • really don't like this arrangement and the music does nothing. more dance less acrobatics if this was sorted you would be great, you've got potential girl! :)

  • @DevonGirlie The routine was great,so if you want more dance learn to read and dont choose a video labeled acrobatics solo?!?!?!?

  • Okay, so i do acro too :)

    and your legs are sooo good ! :)

    but, the only thing wrong is the dancing, and its defintaly NOT your fault, because the moves you did are something for a 4-7 year old in my studio, the dancing was just a couple arm movments. other then that, it was good. just control your chest balance more:)

  • I think the reason you looked so tired between steps is cause you tend to take deep breaths between jumps and turns, which is cute, but does give off a tired vibe. ;)

    Otherwise you did great. *clap clap*

    And I love the song... :)

  • I'm sorry but the way you moved your upper body just looked poor and uncontrolled.

  • lol every time i see this it just keeps getting better lol

  • great job!

  • sometimes you offbeat but other than that amazing performance

  • I think you're great, but you could be even better. You really need to go for it! And with a song with such an apparent beat and energy, you need to match that. You have great flexibility and potential though, so keep working hard =)

  • yeah of course! i just think that the song could have had more dynamics like ups and downs and slightly more emotion possibly just to help with the performance side because then more feeling could be put into it. dont get me wrong i think your dancing is absolutely amazing and i am so jealous lol i just think that a song with more emotion/feeling would give you more room to show some performance! i no its hard while doing acro to really perform but i think a more emotive song could really help!!

  • but still looks like you dont need it much cos yourr sooooo amazing!! im sooooo jealous!!!!! ive been dancing for years and im still not as good as you!! you have some great lines and amazing flexibility as always!!! cant wait for more vids!!! ;)

  • you have so much potential as a dancer you have everything now you just need the practice some comments would be you need to perform try make the movements bigger than they really are and make each step flow with the other so it doesnt seem cut off .... but i cant wait till you grow as a dancer you are very promesing =]

  • thank you very much for all the feedback!

  • Great job. Your extensions are fabulous along with your leaps. One thing i noticed throughout the dance is that you are letting your elbows sink allittle bit before your leaps, and on your shanay turns before your leaps. (sp? lol) Other wise you do a great job!

  • Yea :) i see that now, thanks!

  • @yopaigiey:

    shanay is not a word. chaîné on the other hand is.

  • you did a nice job!!

  • Really lovely work but i dont think the song choice was that great!!! amazing work though and congrats on your gold and judges choice!!

  • Are you able to dedicate alot of time to practice or are you getting to the age where this is becoming more secondary?

  • no. this is my first priority. and i don't care about anything else but dance. I just started dancing competively this year... so i'm very far behind and need alot more time !

  • but yes... i am at the age were it is beginning to get very difficult to find time... !

  • pretty good.. your arms need a lot of work during your turns though.

  • yea... i get lazy

  • very good!
