As I said I am a dancer. I'm not claiming to be the best but I am pretty good. Dancing is not all about movement. My dance teacher requires me to know the background of the movement and the background of the type of dance that I am doing. Many poeple think that dance is a relativley safe "hobby" but it's really not. Dance is a very dangerous "hobby" because landing wrong on a leap could ruin my career or even not streching properly could put me out of dance for awhile. To me dance was harder when I was a beginner 13 years ago. But it's different for everyone. I put quotation marks around "hobby" because to me dance is as much a sport as football or baseball. Not that I'm claiming that it's better, I'm just simply saying dance can be harder. Plus dancers compete all the time. And dance is like cheerleading. Just cheerleading has gymnastics in it. I guess you can say that I love dance as much as I love my life. I hate it when people make funn of me because I'm a dancer. They make it sound like any one can do it. That's not true. I would like to see people do what I do. You know fouettes or pirouettes. Yeah it's not that easy. During the school year I tend to take many different dance classes that run for an hour at a time. Sundays being the time when I dance from 12 - 7. In the summer I dance 18 hours a day normally. Dance is really a great thing and I think that every one should try it in their life. But like singing and acting not everyone can do it.
TTFN XOXOXO
