My Place

Being in a room with smooth floors, mirrors and music makes me feel relaxed.
Whenever I am having a hard time, I'm sad, feel alone or just need to release some stress, I find myself there. This place makes me forget about all my troubles.
The mirrors do not only help me with alignment but they also reflect who I am and who I want to be but most of all where i want to be.
Looking into the mirror allows me to see my past, my mistakes and what i have learned.
It helps me take a step forward not backwards.
I would call this place, the dance studio.
I dance even when i feel pain knowing there's something to gain. I dance for the passion.
Not only do I dance for me but for everyone else to see the joy in my eyes and to inspire those who enjoy dance as much as i do.
Being in the dance studio practicing, takes me to the next ultimate place, where I love to be.
Somehow giving a speech in front of a group of people makes me tense, nervous and freeze.
BUT performing on stage makes me feel wanted, accomplished and confident.
Doing double, triple spins, dipping and flipping, without this I feel empty.
Performing on stage, being in the lights, hearing the crowd cheer and clap...I am fine, despite other frights.
Performing on stage is where I belong, grooving to any song.

  1. I think that your take on dance in general is amazing. It seems that dance is not only a sport/hobby but something truly special. I think that dance is great way to express one's self.
    People all find their place through different things, and dance is definately your niche. : )
