Filed under: dance..
In this blog, I’m going to talk about hip-hop dancing. I’ve always liked to dance to most kinds of music, mostly active music. For example, I am not very good at ballet or jazz because that’s the kind of music I don’t like. The kind of music I like is the one that makes me move, like the music played at parties, loud music, or music that is not slow. When I was little, my mom put me in ballet classes. I never liked it, and I was always misbehaving not because I was a bad kid, but because I got really bored in classes. Finally I was so bad, that the teacher kicked me out of classes. Since then, I wasn’t in any dancing classes until a year ago when I found Warehouse Dance Center (WDC). This place gives all different types of dancing classes for all ages. For example, they have jazz, ballet, tap, break-dance, combinations of these classes, and also hip-hop. When I started there, I chose hip-hop because I liked the music, the people, and the type of dance. I went to three diferent academies looking for this kind of dance, but all of them had just jazz type dancing and I was looking for something more active. During my first classes at WDC, I felt really nervous because there weren’t only girls in the class, but also boys. In this class everyone gets really into the topic of hip-hop, they get all dressed up with hats, baggy pants, ties, big shoes, etc… I was really afraid someone in the class would make fun of me because I wouldn’t dance as well as they did. I stood in the back of the class and copied all the cool moves they had learned. Everyone was so into their dance that they didn’t even notice I was there. Now I’ve been going to classes for a year, and I love it. I never miss a class. I love the type of music, and all the energy I feel when I dance. Everyone else in the class feels the same way I do and they all try really hard to dance their best. This pushes me to make my best effort because I know I’m not the best one in the class, but I would totally like to be the best one day.

Hey!
Great post. It’s awesome that you finally found something you love to do. Hip-hop sounds really fun and I can tell that you can connect to it. I would love to learn how to dance hip-hop, but I don’t think I’m very coordinated, hehe. Never give up, eventually you’ll become the best one!
