Your Daily Dance is a web site devoted to all things dance, and features dance tips, techniques, and resources, delivered nearly daily. (Phew! That’s a lot of work!) Your Daily Dance is the creation of Angie, a dance mom who now has a daughter in dance, and is a dancer herself.
One of the neat features of Your Daily Dance is that Angie has assembled a panel of experienced dance teachers, and when readers submit their questions, these experts offer their advice and insight. Samples of this type of Q & A can be found here in Getting More Height for Your Leaps and here in Mastering More Than a Double Turn.
Your Daily Dance also offers a very wide listing of song selections for all types of dance. You can subscribe to Your Daily Dance’s newsletter to keep the fresh music ideas flowing to your inbox.
Because Angie has her pulse on what’s hot in the dance music world, and keeps lists of songs that are off the beaten path, I asked her to send a selection of songs my way. I have edited these songs to typical dance routine lengths that are used for competitions, recitals, and talent shows, and made them available in Squirrel Trench’s Legitmix catalog, both individually and as an album. This fun collection of songs covers a variety of dance styles, including jazz, tap, lyrical, contemporary, and hip hop. While many edited songs in the Squirrel Trench Legitmix catalog are $9.99, most of the songs in this collection are being offered at the special price of only $4.99. And if you can use most or all of the songs in this special Your Daily Dance album for November of 2014, you can get buy all 8 of them (plus two variations) for only $24.95. That is a savings of more than 50% compared to buying them individually. There’s likely no better bargain in top-notch songs that are ready to be choreographed.

For those new to Legitmix: The way it works is that when you want to purchase an edited or remixed song, Legitmix checks to see if you already own the original song(s) in your iTunes purchased list. If you already own it, you only pay for the edited or remixed song in your shopping cart. If you don’t already own the original song in iTunes, you have the opportunity to buy that too, at the normal iTunes cost (usually between $0.69 and $1.29). For more on how it works, you can watch this video, or go to the Legitmix site.

With so much tragedy in the world today, I offer to you, this small token of peace. Please enjoy this mash-up of Aura Veris’ orchestral cover of John Lennon’s Imagine, with a poem written and performed by Suheir Hammad titled “What I Will.”
