How to Choose the Perfect Partner for Ragga Jam

Choosing a dance partner is an essential part of a brilliant performance. To make the right choice, you need to understand the specifics of the dance style. It's no secret that for some dance styles, calm, diligent people with plasticity and "softness" are suitable.

For other styles, on the contrary, hyperactive people who can spend every second of their time actively studying all the nuances of the dance are ideal. So let's first figure out how to characterize Ragga Jam?

First and foremost, it's a dance for getting to know your body, possessing incredible energy. Fiery movements, simple combinations, uninhibited actions—that's how you can describe Ragga Jam. This style helps a person become self-confident and love their body.

Therefore, as strange as it may sound, the ideal partner for this style is a self-absorbed person who knows their worth, loves themselves, and is moderately open to learning new things.

Such a partner can show their confidence, adding confidence to you as well. Watching them, you will feel strong positive energy and a charge of motivation, because you will also want to be in the spotlight.

Thus, you will subconsciously compete for the audience's attention, honing your skills ever sharper. Together, you will be able to show what you are really capable of.

A great partner could also be someone who hasn't fully accepted their body or used it to its full potential, but has an incredible desire to learn. We all know that effort leads to perfection.

Yes, you'll have to work a bit with such a partner, teach them something here and there, guide them in the right direction. But this is the person you will teach to dance exactly the way you want! They will follow your recommendations, strive for you, and you will surely appreciate it, and the results will not be long in coming.

Ragga Jam is predominantly a street dance, so someone who is familiar with a street lifestyle will handle it perfectly. For example, people who spent most of their childhood in the yard with local kids, who love walks or travel, and can "survive" in street conditions.

There are many such people, but not all of them have creative abilities or understand dance. However, such a person will be much easier to teach than an office worker.

Also consider the fact that you will spend a lot of time with your dance partner. Hours of training, touches during combinations, controversial questions about the specifics of the style, and shared experiences at performances—you will go through all this with your partner. Therefore, you must first get to know the partner as a person, not just as a dancer.

If communication with them is unpleasant, then dancing will only bring you suffering. Find a person that matches your requirements: sense of humor or serious attitude, follower or leader, calm or emotional. All this needs attention and proper conclusions.

It's equally important to choose a partner who matches your level. Of course, you'll have to work hard if you've been dancing for years and your partner is a beginner. The same applies vice versa: if you're a beginner, an experienced dancer is unlikely to want to spend their time on you.

It's great if you are at the same level and learn from each other's mistakes, helping and supporting each other. This motivates you both and helps you achieve success together.

The choice of partner should be approached very responsibly; you cannot leave it to chance or trust someone else.

Only you know who you need, with what experience, mindset, and lifestyle. You need to realize that your results depend on how correctly you choose your partner.
