The sharp drop off point was when dancers/choreographers stopped sharing their creations on socials bc their work was being stolen immediately. To the point where that Fortnight game was stealing dances with no credit. We haven’t recovered since
I think BA have lost a lot of our connection to dancing. Becoming an adult with responsibilities will do that…but as humans…we dance and dancing well, the body awareness involved is not superficial. We should always be working to preserve this connection.
