Today I’d like to feature a dancer who is very talented and is truly popular amongst our audiences; Trinidy Combs. She’s charming, charismatic and is an extremely good dancer.
In the dance studio I could choke her some days but in the end she follow through if and when she practices outside of studio-time.
When we first auditioned her, Trinidy stood out amongst all the dancers in her category and she looked like she actually enjoyed what she did.
This is her second year dancing with LEGACY and we will miss her very much as she gets ready to depart to college after August, 2011. This LEGACY show is the last one you’ll get to see her in.

I'm Trinidy-
Im not really a diva I SWEAR!
All of the dancers bring different, interesting, attributes to the show- it's so fun to watch everyone interact. I love how it feels when you dance your heart out on stage then you go back stage and your muscles are sore and shaking. I'm addicted to the adrenaline I get from performing. But like most addictions you need more and more to get the same high. And I found that I wasn't getting the same high anymore so I came up with a solution; I would not practice before going on stage. I got more adrenaline all right! as i panicked trying to remember the next step! After a MAJoR mess up I decided I would give up on my search for adrenaline and practice before shows.
I loved going to rehearsals and getting in trouble. Last year we were all kind of new to each other so I got away with a lot. This year, Luis is taking no Bull from Trinidy. (he sucked the fun out of dance!) Joking, I love you luis! (hehe)
The team likes to give me crap about the amount of "attention" I need. But I'm a performer! If I didn't want to be seen I wouldn't have spent 8 months practicing :) just.saying-Although.. I am starting to understand that the rest of the group has also spent 8 months practicing.. (I don't know why this JUST became clear to me)
One of the things I will forever remember about the Legacy production is dress rehearsal. I mean I know things go wrong during these pre-show practices but ours went horrific! I honestly was scared for the show. Our dressing rooms were a flight and a half stairs down from the stage, so in between each number we had to fly down the stairs, find our costumes, change, then book it back up to the stage. People would run on stage without shoes on, hats on backwards, come on stage half way into a song when they were really supposed to be there in the beginning. Once during a dress rehearsal for Smooth Criminal my shoe flew off into the audience seats and I couldn't stop laughing. But miraculously, when it was really time to do the show, we were all dressed in time and ready to go. Granted, many of us decided to say ex-nay to the stairs and would try to hide behind props back stage to change.

We had so much fun, I absolutely cannot wait to do it again.
peace out :)
Im so proud of you! I believe you have had to work harder for this dance group then any others thus far; theirfore, reaping the greatest rewards. I have watched u work unbelieveably hard for 9 months straight preparing for that one big week of shows... when that time finally arrives i see in you soo much happiness, contemptment, pride and a sense accomplishment that im not sure you would of gained any other place.
ReplyDeleteSo, Thank you Legacy for contributing to my daughters future!!!!!! Great job Trinidy!!!! Can't wait to see where your next path takes u:)
Our pleasure. LEGACY is nothing without it's soul which is the dancers. Each and everyone of them has something special to bring to the table. Trinidy is very talented and we will miss her when she goes to college. We'll even miss her naughty-behavior when it's no longer there too; that's how much we'll miss her. :)
