Why Camp Rock?

0

The Disney movie Camp Rock was one of the biggest hits ever for Disney. Choreographed by Kishaya Dudley (who also was involved with Michael Jackson’s videos, plus Gwen Stefani and other actors), the story revolved around a camp for teens to learn singing, dancing, and other skills necessary for a rock and roll career. Joe Jonas played “Shane Gray”, the camp dance teacher, and as such was featured heavily in the dancing. It made a lot of people want to imitate the moves, and when the movie went to DVD it put the tools of imitation in the hands of the fans. The moves created by Kishaya Dudley draw from her background in hip hop, modern, jazz, and even a lot of line dance moves. However, the best thing that she did with her choreographed routines – and, indeed, in the entire movie – was emphasize that the best moves for you come from within, regardless of your training. Being passionate and having fun with your “freestyle” dance moves was more important than getting steps exactly right.
