  hmm.. just came back from watching a movie with my fren "Make it happen" then me n my fren was discussing abt the movie. i dun knoe, i guess i was just thinking why most dancers would wear skimpy clothing. can't a dancer be fully covered up and also dance as well? oh well.. just a thought that's all.

   

  by the way, the movie was great, love the dances moves in the movie though.

  hmm.. can also wear not so revealing clothing but yet have the flexibility to sway here n there, is that possible? like wearing something like wat ballerinas wear but not dancing ballet. another thought.

  erm no need skimpy, but add more flair to the dance. but need relatively fitting or non-hindering clothing.

  don't get me wrong.. the media portray it that way. in fact humans are all this way too. dancing could be related as a celebration of the human body through movement. in a way a kind of art..

  if u're talking about clubbing music, r & b rapp kind... it's not art but more like sleeze la.. a bunch of bikini girls dancing is more likely to attract more audience than a group of all wrapped up ladies.

  those pple make the movies ultimately is not for artistic display but for money..

  i'm not talking abt clubbing all this, talking abt dancing in general as a dancer

  dancers need to be dressed nicely to make her look prominent. similar to why woman's formal wear mostly is revealing one...
