I’ve recently started taking dancing classes for the first time in my life and let me be the first to say that it is AMAZING. I am taking a beginner’s hip-hop class, which means that the class focuses on creating a choreography with basic steps that everyone can do. Not only am I able to dance, which I love, but I am also able to exercise and grow as a person. I believe that these are reasons as to why everyone should take a dance class at least once in their lives. The stress that comes from everyday life is enough to make us forget to take care of our bodies. An hour worth of a light workout is not going to do any harm. In fact, it’ll do more good than harm. You’d be surprised how easy it is to work up a little bit of sweat just from doing a few moves. After taking the class, you’ll also notice just the lack of tension throughout your muscles. All the stretching you do in class will help this. Maybe I’m not convincing enough with just my point on exercising. How about confidence and self-love? Are you ready to feel that? The beauty of a beginner’s face class is that you are not expected to know how to dance. You are simply expected to come in unprepared, have fun, and literally DO YOU! If you think you’re doing a move wrong, but you’re adding your own flavor to it, I guarantee you that the teacher will love this much more than if you did the move right. Through these classes, I’ve learned to take a hard look at my body and what it is capable of. I see all my faults in the mirror, but with dancing, I’m learning to embrace them. Hopefully you’ll join a dance class and experience what I am. It truly is a fun place to just be yourself.
