Technique vs passion/expression

In your dance, you can focus on:

  1. Making the moves precise, working on your technique

  2. Or you try with your movements to express the music, be artistic.

Now ideally you do (1)+(2) together, but that's challenging, and takes time to do well.

For those who are learning, which of (1),(2) would you put first, and recommend to focus on?

Say, if I focus on (1), then what I do is limited, and it can feel that I only care about the execution of movements rather than trying to feel the dance.

Whereas if I focus on (2), then not everything will look good visually.

Any thoughts?
