- Jane Austen
Love is in the air this Valentine’s Day, as I spent it
dancing away at my studio in preparation for first competition of the season. Dancing
has been my life for the past 14 years of my life. From a young age I danced aimlessly,
without a though or care. I danced simply because it brought me joy and
happiness. I will dance when I am happy, emotional, inspired or excited. It
doesn’t matter my mood, I will always be dancing, because it is my most favorite
thing to do. It’s crazy how an after school activity turns into hours of your
weekly schedule dedicated to the art. It shows true passion and desire to want
to keep going, and work on improvement, despite a hectic schedule and other
experiences. In the end I have found it is all worth it all by the feelings
dance brings me. After every meeting, practice, rehearsal, performance,
competition I fall in love all over again. Being on stage is not the only
highlight, its being around the dancer who share the same of love of dance with
you its working with choreographers who inspire you to love dance more than
ever before, it’s the little girls outside the door waiting for you to finish
and catch your glance that makes the love grow stronger and stronger by each
eight count. Dance has become my first love, and I wouldn’t want it any other
way. I only hope to share that love with those around me. I indeed have
becoming so fond of dancing, that with every; leap, turn, reach, extension and
step I fall deeper, and deeper in love. If you are ever feeling forever alone,
especially on the celebration day of love, just chase deep within you passion
and find something that can keep a smile on your face, because that is a great
kind of love.
