Terence is truly versatile in presenting different dance forms. In fact, Remo and Geeta are not even aware of some of the dance forms he shows. I remember in one act Remo did not see any dance in the "China martial art" dance form Terence showed. That dance form is so famous in China. I do not think he was aware of the "bull fight" dance form from Spain or the dance steps from New York. I just wish Terence was as perfect as Remo in training his contestants. Remo does a very good job of training his folks. Geeta has lot of limitations. Her concepts are very traditional and sometimes childish. I think by now she as well as others are aware of it. I remember that in the very early auditions Remo and Geeta were a group and used to make fun of Terence. I now see their attitude change towards Terence for better!

Terence, if you are reading this, I would like to see one great performance on the Irish "Tap Dancing". I know it is very difficult and required many weeks of practice. But nothing can compare with it's music and mesmerizing steps. Michael Flatley has made this dance form almost his own. Would love to see this dance on the DID.

I completely agree with you. Iguess Terence knows more about international dance forms as he has trained abroad. But, his versatility is awesome. I don't think that the other two can match him. Among the three, Geeta is the worst. I liked her this week's choreography but, she has very limited concept. Another thing I have noticed is that Terence is the only one who uses the technical terms of dance while the others just stick to their comments in a way I guess anyone can give. Remos' concept are at times good and at times disaster. I am waiting to see what else can Terence come up with. Every week I wait for his toli's performance. Its like something new is going to come. Best of luck to Terence and his toli.

He definitely is, but again he is not so well versed with Indian dance forms. I'd like to see the contestants perform a few more traditional dances from his group. And yes I want to see Jai and Mayuresh doing hip hop - something I've not seen yet.

Hip Hop is not something people can learn in a day or week. While Prince may be very good at it, and I agree, he has been doing it all his life. When when it comes to coreographing it is difficult to beat Terence. I am not talking about indivividual capability but Terence versatality and range.

I think that Terence has trained in folk dance and classical dance too. I would like to see some of those dance forms from him. I don't think that any of his contestants have yet performed a folk dance or a classical number. But, whatever he has choreographed till today is awesome.

terence comes up with best performances every week, even on this Friday's episode (march 27/09) his toli was the best, according to me. i thought Jai and Vrushali were amazing 👏

fully agree with u. he is the most versatile man. till today he shows very different and unique style of dance forms. every time he comes up with something new. from international to indian. he shows his mastery in international dance form at the same time in indian dance to. e.g. vrushali's performance in indian classical form.

my salute goes to master terence👏👏👏

Excellent Topic Post Title👍🏼 and absolutely true...

I feel part of Terence's strength is greatly in his right⭐️attitude:

⭐️--Right attitude for genuinely and maturely listening to everyone's criticism with respect as a sort of guide to only better himself---he's sportingly taken his fellow collegues and even the contestants words with respect and without arguing back to them or putting them down with a defense mechanism...

⭐️--Right attitude for always telling his contestants to also genuinely take into regards his collegue choreographers comments and opinions (let me point out that a mentor's attitude affects the students also---example, Remoji himself was not impressed by his own student Prince's manner towards his collegues in public. Whether Prince was entitled to it, is another story---fact is his own Guide, Teacher felt something wrong with it or the effect of it and was quick to point it out to be corrected so it doesn't take place again. Students follow their Guides/Mentors as do Children to their Parents...and things are not always said in words to be picked up---one's way of being and attitude can be sensed without words. Thus, somewhere this student Prince felt being this way was acceptable, which I have not seen students of other mentors with the nerve to do that in public. That speaks for itself. ) So, getting back to Terence's telling his contestant since day 1 to acknowledge the other choreographers advice respectfully shows something Very Very positive about him which I have not seen on a constant level happening with Anyone else on that show!

👏This tells he truly carries a good heart towards his "Art" and carries the potential to reach the sky this way...

For one to truly be able to criticize themselves and honestly praise anothers work if it IS infact good or even better than theirs is more than just a positive sportingly attitude---in psychological terms it's the mentality of a Very Secure Individual indeed!! When we fall prey to mocking others, putting others down, playing games, not truly appreciating others work, not being able to take criticism genuinely from within (not talking about faking it and just acting like taking it from the top), carrying defense mechanisms, and thus rather get engulfed by our egos, pride, etc...all these are only signs of someone "Weak/Insecure" from within who needs such stuff to convince themselves or the world of something. One can never improve with a narrow or egotistical mindset. Life's continuously a stage of learning and bettering one self---for one to inside feel they know it all and are above everyone, and yet show on the outside to everyone that they're humble in accepting criticism is not the right attitude or way of being for anything...Because one can fake once, twice, few times of sportingly take others negative views for their work, but not ALL THE TIME---as I have seen ONLY TERENCE UPKEEP A POSITIVE ATTITUDE CONTINUOUSLY. Others are good as well in their talents, and it's only natural to fall prey to our human nature--just i've Not seen this in Terence so I wanted to point it out. I appreciate everyone's talent on the show, but furthermore I'm highly impressed by and have just gained far more respect seeing Terence's high morale way of being along with his Mind-blowing talent...

⭐️Terence is the one person, who consistently since day 1, has shown to genuinely absorb criticism in a positive manner....this I think has to be part of the reason why he's become so great & versatile...--->"Terence is Versatile" ---indeed True! and great post again😊
