You've probably already read the interview with the choreographer of the show "DANCES" on TNT, and. Today Ekaterina Reshetnikova answers your questions.
Elle Girl: At what age is it better to start dancing?
Kate: The earlier the better! But that doesn't mean you can't start dancing at 50.
Elle Girl: Which one did you start in?
Kate: I think someone, long before I was born, decided that I would connect my life with dancing. And then a chain of events just happened: the rhythm in kindergarten, where during the graduation concert I was chosen alone to perform the number “Chunga-Changa”, and I missed the whole celebration because I sat behind the stage painted with black paint; sports aerobics, which was first called “American”, which attracted me, and then dancing. And from that moment I didn’t twitch anymore. (Smiles). Apparently, she has made up her mind.
Elle Girl: There are a lot now dance styles. How do you know which one to choose?
Kate: Now, there really is a huge choice. You just need to go to a few different activities. I'm sure you'll fall in love with something!
Elle Girl: How many years of dancing do you need to perform as well as in the movie “Step Up”?
Kate: So! Well, the film “Step Up” is a film, and therefore good editing, etc. Nowadays, dancers often shoot small videos with their choreography, and often it all looks good only because of the editing. Set yourself other goals. (Smiles).
Elle Girl: Is it possible to learn to dance on your own, or do you have to attend classes?
Kate: For some, this is simply given by nature - they quickly copy and also quickly master new styles. But you will have to spend a lot of time on self-development, even at home. And if you are just starting to dance, then it is, of course, more interesting in a group!
Elle Girl: Until what age does a dance career last?
Kate: Whoever wishes, there are no restrictions. (Smiles).
Elle Girl: Should I quit school to devote more time to dancing?
Kate: Well, I wouldn’t recommend quitting school outright. But managing your time wisely in order to get everything done is what you need. And it's real.
Elle Girl: What exercises will help you stay in shape?
Kate: Don't eat. (Laughs). This is the most difficult exercise for me...
Elle Girl: Are there any common moves for all dance styles?
Kate: Of course, there are some identical steps, hand movements, etc. Of course, not everything, but there is something in common. It’s just that depending on the style, these movements are “colored” differently, so it may seem that everything is different in each style.
Elle Girl: Is it worth dancing for those who don't know how to dance? Or does it look terrible?
Kate: Everyone should dance! And you know, I really like it when people who don’t dance are not only not shy, but do it with such joy and excitement that many so-called “professional dancers” should learn from them.
Elle Girl: How to overcome the fear of public speaking?
Kate: This is one of those things - I’m afraid, but I do it. There is no special secret. I think over time the fear will develop into a desire to dance in public.
Elle Girl: Which genre most impresses the jury at castings?
Kate: I’m not on the jury if we’re talking about the “DANCE” project. I personally can be hooked by character or crazy technology. But still more character. Although if there is both, then that’s very cool!
Elle Girl: What to do if you forgot a move while dancing? Or fell on stage?
Kate: Get out. This happens, and it is not a disaster.
Elle Girl: Which dance style is easiest and fastest to learn?
Kate: I can not answer this question.
Elle Girl: You spend a lot of energy. What does your daily diet include? Where do you get so much energy?
Kate: Everything is the same as everyone else’s: fruits, vegetables, nuts, dates and fish. I haven't eaten meat for a long time.
Elle Girl: What are the most popular trends that dancers come to casting with? Why are they chosen so often?
Kate: Probably, after all, contempo. Although there is a lot of hip-hop too. The fact that people come with the style that is their profile is normal, but when people start experimenting with their skills at castings, it’s strange.
Elle Girl: What style is most difficult for the participants of the show “DANCING”?
Kate: Many people don't like it very much ballroom dancing. (Smiles). Of course, except for those who have been doing them for many years...
