In waacking, one size does most certainly not fit all. There are different 'fits' within the style, and as our waacking disciple pilgrimage has passed the treacherous opening pathways, we have started to experiment with these stylistic options in more depth.
The trick is to switch the fit to reflect different parts of the music. Much like one might switch the fit of a pair of trousers from casual to high-waisted to go from day to evening.
To do this well is by far easier said than done, as there is a risk (as I for sure found out) of looking something akin to the Mad Hatter at his unbirthday party. However, if you are successful, it certainly adds finesse to a freestyle.
The difficulty also lies in being able to convincingly reflect all moods of a song when some of these lie outside the realms of polite society. The trick to solving this dilemma is always having an @Trixiecantswim to hand, she's like a situation thesaurus.
The proof of the power of these moves will be in the pudding next week at the Christmas Waacking Battle where in theory we should all be multi-tasking, floor-owning, and style-switching it up like pros ..... cos that's entirely possible.
