Lauren Gottlieb Instagram – Class footage from my beautiful friend and Superstar choreographer/teacher @brianfriedman’s 3 HOUR Masterclass! 💥💃🏻 For aspiring dancers: it’s so helpful to film yourself and watch it back! Growing up I watched my competition videos for hours to dissect the placement of every move. I also remember watching Brian like a hawk while assisting him, making sure my eye lashes down to my pinky toes were doing the choreography properly. However, I didn’t grow up in the generation that films class. That feels like a new beast, striving to be “perfect” directly after learning the routine definitely adds pressure. I’ve just recently gone back to taking class as professional jobs don’t always push your body and brain the way class does. I don’t feel my best right now. Actually, I messed up in this video a few times (if you couldn’t tell, now you know lol). There’s a little ping to my ego that that says I should be able to dance this better. And I will!! Practice makes perfect. There’s no shortcuts. Whether you are a beginner or a seasoned professional who like me hasn’t danced this hard in years, you just need to begin, or begin again!! Time, patience, grit, and determination and you’ll reach the top of your game!! Hope this is a little inspiration to anyone who needed to hear it 💓😘 🧠 @brianfriedman 🕺🏻 @yvescueni @mattantonucci_ 🎤 @mettenarrative 📍 @theplaygroundlondon 🎥 @liam__studio #laurengottlieb #brianfriedman #london #playgroundlondon #dance #jazzfunk
