Always remember......
 
 1) Warm up & stretching before you start practice.
 2) Remember to breathe.
 3) Keep your muscles relaxed (don't tense up)
 4) Smile :)
 5) Have fun with it
 
Never...
 
 1) Do something that hurts.
 2) Dance if you are not having fun
 3) Let yourself get frustrated with it (this stuff takes time and practice).
 
Go with the flow...
 
If you make a mistake just go with it, make it look like you meant to do it. Never stop because you made a mistake or forgot, at least keep dancing an improvised version. Work your mistakes into the dance. Sometimes you end up doing something you like better.
