Brooklyn, NY

Female, 25

I am a professional NYC contemporary/modern dancer. I work freelance, dancing in various projects around NYC. It ranges from performance art, flash mobs, and various styles of modern/contemporary dance. It's tough, I hustle everyday. I also bartend to pay the bills and work at a dance studio for discounted classes. It's a struggle, between auditions, classes, and maintaining artistic integrity. But I love my life.

I have a lyrical/contemporary solo for competition and I'm supposed to dance in jeans. I've seen other guy dancers dance lyrical or contemporary in jeans (splits, jumps, leaps, tilts, and all). But when I try it doesn't work. Any advice?

I want to become a professional backupdancer in hip hop, and I've only had 6 years of ballet, I haven't danced in 6 years. I go to the house of movement for now, and it isn't suitable for a beginner like me. I live in queens and I need advice. Thanks
