New Dance: Doraemon

Jennifer Choo Sue Chin | March 22, 2016

To suit the Cartoon theme for LDFKL2016, I have choreographed a cute little dance to one of Asian’s favourite cartoon theme songs: Doraemon!

It is a 1 wall and easily phrased dance. Simple steps to fit the cute music Doraemon No Uta by Kumiko Usogi. Feedbacks and responses received during the party was great. Hope you’ll pick it up too just for fun.

New Dance: A Little Talk

Jennifer Choo Sue Chin | October 7, 2015

I’ve always been looking for a gospel pop song that isn’t too ‘churchy’ to choreograph a dance to, but didn’t manage to find any suitable one. God must have learnt of my intention and sent me the perfect song via Adeline Chang from Penang. She asked me to choreographed to Loretta Lynn’s Just A Little Talk with Jesus for a church performance and requested for simple steps. I took a listen and loved the upbeat and happy tune immediately!

It’s a 32 count 4 wall improver level line dance, with simple enough steps but the 2 restarts elevated the level of the dance to improver instead. I taught it at Belle Lee’s Dance Bash in Melaka over the weekends and response was great. Before releasing the dance, I’ve already multiple requests for the music as instructors can’t wait to teach this new one. Do try it out yourself!

New Dance: The Young Ones

Jennifer Choo Sue Chin | June 25, 2015

Stepsheet: http://www.copperknob.co.uk/stepsheets/the-young-ones-ID105231.aspx

Exactly 4 weeks ago, my beloved father left us and went to heaven. It was Father’s Day just last weekend and I missed him so much. Reminiscing the memories of him and the 40 years we spent together especially in my early childhood, I’ve posted some old pictures on Facebook and painted a picture of his composition.

I haven't painted for ages, especially since I started line dancing. Dug out my 20+ year old water colours n started painting what was my late father's composition when I was in primary school. Whenever the teacher asked for scenery, this would be my submission. But it looked better then because dad would always help to touch up so I could submit a presentable 'masterpiece'.

Whenever the teacher asked for scenery, this would be my submission. But it looked better then because dad would always help to touch up so I could submit a presentable ‘masterpiece’.

He has also gifted me the sense of music for he loved music and always listening, singing and whistling to songs, country songs being his favourite. One of the melodies I hear often while riding in his car would go, “Once in every life time… ~drum roll~ ” That melody kept playing in my head last week and so I decided to google the lyrics and found, oh, it was Cliff Richard’s The Young Ones. The steps quickly formed in my head and I got the dance recorded over the weekends with my students.

The dance is a 64 count 2 wall line dance written for high beginners. There are however turning and bouncing options to suit the intermediate dancers which is as shown in the video. Hope you like it either the beginner or intermediate options. Have fun dancing it.

Dedication: in loving memory of Joseph Choo Bun Siang (1942-2015).

Eulogy:

He couldn’t take his eyes off me and held me in his arms singing “Shi sang zi you ba ba hao” (Translated: In this world only fathers are good; the original song pays tribute to mothers, my dad changed the lyrics to fathers!) the whole night the night I came back from KK Hospital. I was the first born and he was a first time father. With his artistic skills, he would draw faces and animals to grab my attention as a toddler. He would also sing us hymns and songs. We were never tired nor bored with his many stories from his childhood and working-life. So many memories of family bonding time, the weekends spent picnicking and swimming at Marine Parade seaside, experimenting recipes such as making kaya (egg jam) and bakchang (glutinuous rice dumplings), the evening hikes up BM Hill, the qigong/taichi sessions, the frequent drives back to his hometown Selama for festivals and durian feasts, the plucking of mangoes from our garden, repairing household appliances as a team. A strict disciplinarian and no-nonsense man, my siblings and I were terrified of him as he’s also quick with his temper and hands. Nevertheless, we knew how much he loved us and we looked forward to him coming home from work daily, jumping with joy shouting “Ba Ba hui lai liao!” (translated: Dad is home!) when his car pulled in the driveway. With all his diligent education, training and drills for us, we are what we are today, educated and equipped with life skills, and instilled with values to be good human beings. I hope he is proud of us and smiling at us from heaven. We are proud to have him as our father, the best father we could ever have. May you rest in eternal peace and perpetual light shine upon you, papa!

New Dance: TALKING BODY

Jennifer Choo Sue Chin | May 22, 2015
Stepsheet: http://www.copperknob.co.uk/stepsheets/talking-body-ID104567.aspx
Releasing another new dance called TALKING BODY, choreographed to the same song by a Swedish group Tove Lo. It very recently topped the charts in the USA Hot Dance Club Billboard. I choreographed this with my student Jasmine Leong. It is a 32 count 4 wall intermediate line dance with Funky West Coast Swing flavour. As I’ve been taking West Coast Swing lessons lately, I’ve been looking to choreograph something of that genre so this song came as a godsend. Take a listen, you’ll love it too!
There is however a 68 count in the music with different rhythm and melody thus the vanilla steps couldn’t fit in like a jigsaw piece. Don’t let the long tag put you off as we have made it very simple with repetitions and fitting the music. The music is too good, so it’s really worth it.
Contact me for the clean version of the music. Can’t wait to see all of you dancing it! Let your body do the talking…
