You can have a knack for dancing, but you still have to practice till your feet are bleeding to be worthy of being in front of an audience.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
Just because you've been on stage doesn't mean you can dance.
Exactly the same with dancing, you can't dance until you've learnt steps, the things your feet can do.
I have no desire to prove anything by dancing. I have never used it as an outlet or a means of expressing myself. I just dance. I just put my feet in the air and move them around.
I love to dance. But I don't like being up in front of tons of people. I didn't have the desire to be performing in front of a lot of people. So it wasn't something I ever seriously considered.
I've come to realize that people dance for reasons of their own.
Dance should not just divide people into audience and performers. Everyone should be a participant, whether going to classes or attending special events or rehearsals.
To dance is to be out of yourself. Larger, more beautiful, more powerful. This is power, it is glory on earth and it is yours for the taking.
The world is full of ways for people to dance. Concert dance doesn't get its due.
If I only made dances about my own experience in dance, it would always be on my track, and I don't want that, I want to be on the track of where dance can take me.
It's another myth that dancing distorts or destroys your feet. If you have the right shaped foot to start and a good, strong technique, your feet should be fine.
