Strictly Training Video – Harry Judd & Aliona Vilani
Monday’s training diary features Harry Judd & Aliona Vilani and the Cha Cha Cha. There has been some controversy recently with The Daily Star suggesting that this year’s Strictly was fixed for Harry to win. Whilst I admit that a bit of previous training will definitely help, the Paso Doble is unlike any of the dances they will be covering in the early weeks. Also, no offence Harry, but it wasn’t the greatest Paso Doble I’ve ever seen – but then what can be expected from the much shorter training schedule there would of been for Children in Need.
Every dance has it’s own variations and peculiarities that make it very difficult to have a ‘one size fits all’ mentality in the technique department. To be honest Harry is more likely to be kept in by McFly fans than by any secret BBC plot, and if he isn’t well that’s just the way Strictly works.
Anyway, on to analysing the dance!
There are definitely some elements that are already looking sharp (but given that it’s the week of the competition I would hope it was starting to come together by now). He does need to work on the free arm though and try and make it a bit more natural in its movement.
Harry is looking good so far, but there’s still work to do there.
