Really,I guess that makes me more of a dangerous person if I'm pulling something like that off.
And if you guys think one fan is impressive I can also do this:

And this because I like performing Capoeira:

I am not the kind of person that dances the common way since I have to do performances at the live gigs I have to do at conventions. They are to complex for being made for more then one person. |

The precision necessary for these dances is truly phenomenal, and takes years of training.
-------
On a completely unrelated note, here's some dancing from my own culture. It's refered to as the "Jingle Dress Dance", a traditional dance said to have been developed by the Ojibwe people as a sacred healing dance.

You'll notice not only is the footwork intricate and fast-paced, but the drum even speeds up a bit during the dance (which isn't unusual for the type of dance). |
Glad you like my vids,I enjoyed yours as well but to my understanding isn't Sakura a kunoichi(female ninja)?And, if so, everyone should keep in mind that kunoichis were known for disguising themselves as geisha and learned the same things real geishas learned. _________________ “If you love life, don’t waste time, for time is what life is made up of.”

Yes, Sakura is a kunoichi, but she wouldn't be a very good one if she couldn't pass herself off as a true geisha to even the most discriminating eye. I sort of got the impression that she'd be the type of person who, after recieving kunoichi training, would have continued her training in the arts to perfection, perhaps even electing to move into an actual okiya (geisha house) to work and study in the arts while between missions.
Let's not forget that the literal translation of geisha is "artist" or "performer" (gei meaning "art" and "sha" meaning "person"). All geisha are expected to be highly trained in classical dance, music (both singing and playing traditional instruments such as the shamisen), literature, poetry, etiquette, and conversation. _________________ Johnny's Fanfics (including Sureshot!

The only dance i could was just hanging on my ex, the 'slow' dance
XD but I can not even do the "insanje", eh the indian looking like song,
I used to go bowling a lot, and every saterday it was bowling disco night, so you had songs like macarena, the kethup song, and that 'insagne' song. I could only go to the left, but once going to the right i lost the entire step, xD
you basicly just put your right foot first over your left, turn around and have this break stop thingie and then go to the left doing the same just opiset, and yeah i had that problem to do the other side XD _________________ Dreams come True if you B E L I E V E in me...

In real life, the msot dancing I do now is raving. I love going to raves. (yes we French have them.)
(in spain too.)
BUT, when I was a child my mother made me do ballet, so I can do that.
I can also do a ribbon dance...I don't know if it's real, but its very pretty if its skillfully done, and not to brag, but I can do that quite well. Fast or slow.
ClR can waltz, flail around, and do ballet. SHe's best at ballet.
I really need to update my fursona... I willl do so. After. some other time. I'm lazy right now. _________________ [insert witty comment] |
