My first Class Recommendation is drum roll please.............Rhapsody YEYYYYYYYYYY!!!!!! When it comes to Street Jazz she is the one. I first took Rhapsody's class my junior year of high school in 2001 i believe. I begged my mom to give me money (12 bucks in those days) to take her class at BDC because i knew in order to get my foot through the door i had to learn how to do that type of choreography. I was training in Alvin Ailey and in those days they didn't have any Hip-Hop. She seriously knows her shit and  till this day she helps shape so many dancers careers and lives! I love her......Soo take her class if you want to be elite! She teaches at broadway dance center www.bdcnyc.com Mon, Wed, Fri at 7:30pm and thurs 3pm

Welcome :)

Welcome to Danni's Dance Direction. I'm not really good at bogging but i shall try. I was just sitting down bored thinking of the dancers that don't get the answers they need to survive in this industry. Everyone nowadays is a Dancer a Choreographer a Singer an Actress a Teacher etc etc....but are they really? How are up and coming dancers supposed to know who's speaking truth and who's talking dirt? Well, this is what the blog is for. Luckily I've been blessed my entire life to have the knowledge of my craft. Yes God has blessed me with my talent, but i had to work and still am working hard in advancing to higher levels. If it wasn't for my amazing teachers with their brilliant guidance nobody would give a rats ass about the advice I have to give. No matter if you want it as a career or you just want to do it for fun, everyone is entitled to proper training.  We're not in those days where every well known Entertainer or Choreographer/Teacher is the best, so now we must do our research to see if all that 'Hype' matches their actual 'Talent'.
I'll basically be giving my little secrets of Dance. Any style that i know or have not yet learned I'll be giving some tips, advice and list some classes I recommend that can take your dancing to the next level!  I could be a little harsh at times but its all for the love of what i do....Trust!
