MY JOURNEY AS A DANCER

 


____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

I was exposed to arts in early age at 5 which I was in kindergarten. at kindergarten, they will organized an event for every festival such as Hari Raya, Independence day, convocation, etc. on that event, they will make a special slot for student where the students dancing, singing and acting. I was in dancing slot, and that time was the first time im exposed to dance. 

After That, when I continue to primary school, I was chosen to be a part of the dance team and represent school to compete district level. And yet of course I started to love the dance as I am very excited and very put in a lot of effort into the practise every time. Unfortunately I am so obsessed with dance until I can't focus on studies, so my mom told me to stop dancing and focus on my big Exam (UPSR). I stopped dance at the ag of 112 until I continued to Secondary school.

until at the age of 17(2018) which is the age that I will face my other big exam (SPM), I was selected to participate my one of my favorite International dance competition (Tugu Budaya 2018). I was very excited at the same time I was worried that my mom wouldn't let me join, but I plead my mom to give me permission to join the competition. Thus, it gave me higher mark for Co-Curriculum . so at the end she gave me permission to join and I was very happy to about it.

So during the practise, that was the real deal when the choreographer gave us dance moves and so on, because I haven't dance in a long time. Thus, The choreographer is so experienced and it was the first time I know the real dance technique and the performing arts world. Tugu Budaya 2018 was the first and best experience in my entire life. I met a lot of participants from around the world. 

 After that, my interest in performing arts grows stronger and I joined one of the freelance dance company called "Pratama Legacy". I involved a lot of shows and competitions after I finished secondary school. Then, I pursue my interest by continue my studies in performing arts (dance) at Sultan Idris education Universities. Thanks to them, I invloved more shows and Competitions.

Thanks to my supportive lecturers they selected me to involving in one of the international showcase organized by Era Dance Theatre, Singapore on 2020. But due to pandemic, the dance just recorded and showed online. eventhough I never go to Singapore for show, but the knowledge and experience of the new dance, I appreciate more.

I decided to take my own culture dance to show on my Final Year Project Dance Recital. So I take it seriously by putting effort on practise, researching, etc. as the journey went well, finally I am satisfied with my work and the lecturer were very proud of it. And finally, I passed my diploma in flying colors. well, my hard work really paid off.
