Watch your dance teacher CAREFULLY when the dance steps are shown to you. Note how they moves their body, and try to copy them.
If possible, get the moves written down or pictured on a sheet of paper for your personal practice.
Practice for at least one hour per day, every day leading up to any performance.
Pay attention to the teacher at all rehearsals. Remember that this is not about you. You should be quiet and listen closely to the instructions given.
Concentrate on keeping your movements sharp and precise. In most cases, your dance teacher will be graceful. Watch their movements and try to copy them.
Practice often. This will also help you be graceful. The better you know a dance, the easier it will be to perform. If you know the steps well, you will have more brain power to focus on moving gracefully.
Practice walking, jumping, and spinning with grace in your spare time. Walking with a book on your head is good practice and if you are dancing ballet make sure your head is not looking down to the floor, look up and you will look graceful.
Find a role model whom you think of as graceful. Some examples are Martha Graham or many celebrities. Look at pictures and videos of your role model and try to copy their movements.
Have good posture. This not only improves your grace, but also helps you dance. Have you ever seen a slouching ballerina?
