My Dance Journey

I wanna start by saying....i’m not a brilliant dancer and its definitely NOT my strength lol. But because I go to a theatre school I have participate in all the dance lessons. I do enjoy dance though, although I don't look as good as others. I enjoy learning, pushing myself and trying new stuff!

I first started baby ballet at 2 and finished at 4 or 5 because I didn't really like it. Then when I was 7 I went to a Saturday school and did Tap, Street Dance, Singing and Drama. I finished that at 11 because I had got accepted into the full time school! I was so excited to start because at this point singing was my strength and I loved it!

So, I started full time! I was enjoying everything BUT ballet. I wasn't doing very well and I wasn't moving up with everyone else. Also I was giving up on myself and not even trying. So after almost a year of hating every second of ballet, I decided, why not apply my brain to it? And I actually realised ballet wasn't as bad as I thought. If you put up with what you don't like and put your mind to it you actually improve, and it becomes more enjoyable.

Now I love dance and I enjoy every second of it. Shows how much putting your brain to stuff affects your daily life?! Have you ever hated something, put ur mind to it and actually realised its not that bad? If you have DM us @dance_aware or if u wanna talk personally or you need any advice DM me directly @soph._lol xxx
