Questions & AnswersHi there! My name is Connie Hale. Thanks for joining me here at expertvillage.com. Today we are going to be learning some modern and lyrical dancing. I am going to first talk about some body where you would use simple leotards and a body cover up would be find. You can wear a skirt or simple gaucho pants. Something that flows is usually best for a lyrical. You could do a capri's if they are a little bit more larger because they just work more with the body. Lyrical and modern dancing is very expressive form of dance and it is really telling a story with your body. Let's talk about footwear for a second. What I have here is a half soles. It just essentially looks like a foot thong. They do have something to that is called a foot thong. They have foot undee's, other different kinds of things where it just covers the simple tips of your toes. Going to go ahead and use these half soles today. I have on convertible tights; great for dancing different forms. It just simply rolls up off your foot. Again you have a full footed tight. It has a hole in the bottom. You simply just roll it off the foot and you are ready. You can dance barefoot if you like as well. We are going to go ahead and put these half soles on. Better for gripping. Slide it to the foot, have the ball of your foot to turn on. Now put the other foot on.
