DDT Master List and February Schedule

It is finally February!
And we are going to be "Flexin Through Feburary" , but we will be doing it with love as I could not resist the urge to "love up" my dance space in honour of Valentine's Day. I am not sure if you ordered the cheese with your wine but I will be bring some cheese anyway 😂🙄

Below you will find the "tenative" posting schedule for February, the updated master list of all previous DDT videos, my tips for learning, cool down and stretch videos and little warm up videos :) I post the link to this post at the top of every post so you can always easily find everything in one place :)

Schedule for February is as follows:
(It will hopefully be close to this, sometimes life gets in the way, or my internet disconnects because rural life)

Wednesday Feb 4th - Practice Drill
Thursday Feb 5th - Practice Drill
Thurs Feb 13th - Practice Drill
Thurs Feb 20th - Practice Drill & Aziza Sections 1 to 9 Combined.

Remember you can request practice video themes!! More Shimmies? More layering? More level changes? Let me know! I have planned March already but April is still in the works so if you have any requests send me a message :)



These drills will sometimes involve hand weights, medicine ball weight, floorwork, and level changes.
You do NOT have to add these elements of you do not wish to or if you are not physically in a position to handle them right now. You can absolutely follow along at your pace and not use the weights or do the floor work or level changes. You can do the same moves standing. Listen to your body and set your own pace that is right for your body.

To get the most out of these I do recommend keeping a notebook. Record what drill you did, what it focusing on and how much you want to work on that topic. This will help you to know what you have been focusing on and to track improvement depending on your individual goals:)

If you are going to follow along with the floor work and floor postures please invest in knee pads and/or a yoga mat
It looks like the ones I currently use are out of stock or discontinued but these here look similar. https://www.dancewearcentre.com/products/eurotard-994-stretch-cushioned-knee-pads?variant=42809921283
**You can use whatever ones you want. The important thing is that the knees are protected.


Need a new veil or want one like the ones I use in my Drills. Want to support a small business? Check out https://www.etsy.com/shop/SilksByCelestina
(Not sponsored. I genuinely purchase and love her veils and work).
*you can use any veil. I typically use a 3 yard 5mm ultra light silk veil.


There are some cool down stretch videos as well if you would like a little stretching guide and want to see some of my favorite stretches. (cool down video links are after the DDT video links).

If you want to get the most out of this, I recommend keeping a note book. Write down the drill video number before you start and make a note after for yourself how you felt during and after. What did it work for you? Did you struggle with it in certain areas? How does your body feel from it the the next day? This will help you to pin point areas and know how often to do or revisit a drill so you get the most out of these.

Don't do more than you can before you are ready!
It's okay if you ran out of steam halfway through or can't complete the level changes or whatever struggles you may be having. Work through the struggles if you have any. Don't overdo it. Set goals. Do just 1 or 2 songs to start and work your way to 3 if needed. Only take a movement as far and/or as fast as you can without losing too much quality of movement. Drills/practices are not a competition but a rather a tool for growth. Use them wisely and safely and go at your pace:) Seek to Find the balance of pushing yourself without over extending yourself. ❤


Happy dancing to you💃💃Thank you again for being here ❤
