Ballet & Jazz Dance Dictionary
A Compilation of General Terminology and Technique
“Dance should be approached just like any other field of study that requires you to take the time to study the written knowledge, remember it, and then apply it. I began teaching a group of youth beginner dancers for a dance ministry. I used the knowledge that I learned to help me train them in both the physical and written form of the techniques. It was important to me that as dancers, they not only knew how to execute the movement but also know the name of the movement. I found that in doing so they were more confident in their own movements which helped them learn choreography quicker and retain what they learned.”

Fortunately, there is nothing that you did or did not do as a parent to have caused your child to be one of many living with type one diabetes, and there is nothing you could have done differently."

“NJoyPeace”
L.Y.L.T. is derived from the literary word lilt and while it has many definitions LYLT Expressions focuses on the use of the word as a verb. As a verb lilt means to articulate in a very careful and rhythmic way (freedictionary.com, 2003-2017), all product produced are intended to do the same. “Love You Like That” was Lorraine's father’s favorite statement that was a term of endearment for him. He always spoke it with enthusiasm to his daughters and anyone else he loved. So, it was only fitting that it be used when expressing and promoting Love through the arts.
