I believe I am a good dancer because I’ve taken dance
lessons and have been told many times that I have a natural talent. But I know
deep down that it is because I have been dancing and whirling on my toes since
the day I can first rememeber. It is not that I am good at first when I get out
on htd floor, it is the many years that I have spent watching and feeling the
movements of other good dancers that allows me to be a good dancer. Swing
ballroom, waltzing, west cost swing, twostep, contra dancing and freestyle are
all things I love. There is a senation that I get while dancing that comes from
nothing else in life. The whole world melts away. Sometimes I will close my
eyes while dancing and totally reliy on balance and the lead of my partern to
guide me through the movements and steps of the dance. I never want to stop
dancing. Only late ngiths I= and the fact that I must get up in the moring are
the only things that make me come to the reality that I must stop and go home.
I do not seek the dancefoor for attentions from men I seek the dance floor for
the plave in life that it takes me and the way it gives my sould and heart a
rest from the rest of the cares of the workd. I get to dance to music cuases my
heart to yearn to live, Jazz, pop and other styels make my soul thrive. When
the music is flowing through big good quality speakers I can heardly wait to
nbegin swinging and living to the beats of the frums and the magnicifict bass.
I love the acustice bass, I wish I could play the acustic bass I know a little
but I really desire to play in a jazz band where the bass goes all voer the
place with sincronizewd freedom. The deep wonderful sounds the bass makes
reacheces deep down into my soul I’ve talked abput my soul and heart a lot but
that’s becayse dancing touches my heart so

It's so wonderful that you can express yourself through dancing that way. I love to dance, but I've never had any sort of training. I look indescribably silly when I dance, but it's such a fun way to exercise.
ReplyDeleteYou should definitely explore your desire to play the bass. I've played a couple different instruments and it's a lot of fun. There's always a new challenge to learn songs that you hear.
Hello Brie,
ReplyDeleteI think its wonderful that you find freedom through the form of dancing! There are few things as beautiful as when people gracefully express themselves through the art of dance. It is a very unique gift. It is weird how music, almost like a drug, just captures our soul and sets us free.
