Leadership in Dance
This picture was taken after some friends and I competed in a dance competition. To me this illustrates a few different things. One of which is my heritage. The dance competition involved different teams all of which performed a specific type of dance known as Bhangra which is unique to people from India, specifically Punjab.
I believe that this demonstrates my qualities as a teacher since I was one of the major choreographers. My job was similar to a teacher for two reasons. The first being that I had to plan and prepare the movements the same way a teacher would plan and prepare a lesson. The second being that I too had to work under guidelines similar to a teacher planning a lesson based on the curriculum. This is because I had to insure that the dance steps I came up with coincided with the rules of traditional Bhangra. Furthermore, as a teacher who adds their own unique twist on a lesson to make it intriguing to students, I was able to add a Michael Jackson impersonator to our dance. In doing so, I was able to captivate the audience and combine my heritage along with the western culture I was born into.
