Seriously if you practise for six weeks then by then it will come so naturally to you i am sure you could even do it in your sleep. When the day comes just forget that people are watching and pretend that it is just another practise. Trust me when i say it will go fine and afterwards you will wonder why you were so worried in the first place.
Good luck

I can recommend Kalms, a natural herbal remedy for stress relief. You can buy online (with your Dad's credit card) and health food shops like Holland and Barratt or your local chemist may stock it.

There's nothign to worry about. I'm sure there will be a lot parents who will appreciate your efforts and not judge you because it could be their son or daughter there someday. Good Luck.

I've been preforming for a log time now, and I've realized that nerves are just something you have to cope with. As for curing this, there isn't a real remedy, other then go out there and dance your little heart out. If it's something you love to do, you should be showing it off to everyone, make them jealous that they aren't up there with you two.

Probably the best thing to do when you get on stage is smile - and not a fake one either! The next thing is just to really concentrate on the music for the dance. The other thing - to just enjoy it!!
Best of luck. Hope it goes well!
