Praise Dance
At Beautiful-Feet we specialize in teaching praise (worship dance) as a means expressing devotion and reverence through movements and dance.
At Beautiful Feet we have incorporated the following types of dance techniques in our teachings.
Praise Dance Techniques
Creative Praise
Creative praise dance blends motion and rhythmic movements. A song is chosen and acted out using various dance forms to convey the meaning of the verses of the song. Though creative praise dance has basic signs for some words, these can vary depending upon the group.
Prophetic Praise
The prophetic praise dance requires a person to abandon everything that he has learned about the dance. It simply involves a person offering a vessel to the Holy Spirit and allowing the anointing to freely flow through him/her.
Liturgical Praise
A kind of lyrical dance, liturgical praise combines ballet, jazz and modern dance elements. This dance form is so choreographed that includes movements, such as conveying specific acts of worship, like kneeling and specific symbols of worship like a cross.
Worship Praise
A worship praise dance is performed to evoke an adoration of God in the hearts of the audience. This style of praise dance is considered to be solemn and introspective.
