Blog 16: 2-Hour Meeting Answer #2

1. How can a choreographer best support a dancer for successful dance performances?

2. A good choreographer will be make every decision with the opinion of the dancer. Anything that has to do with the routine, the dancer and choreographer will be on the same page.

3. (a) If a dancer does not know about a change in the performance, dancer will be unprepared and most likely uncomfortable.
    (b) Both should compromise on things like costumes. While the routine is the choreographers vision, it is the dancer performing.
    (c) When both are satisfied it is most likely going to be a successful performance.

4. My mentor mentioned this.

5. I plan to continue my answer 2 by researching how often this is a problem and by watching all the choreographers at my mentorship and paying close attention on how they listen to their dancers.
