How unfair it seems that I work just as hard now at the dance that I love, yet my body feels like a rock that refuses to move on the dance floor. Years of pregnancies, inactivity and accumulated weight are obstacles that loom in the way of my dancing aspirations.
So what's a mom to do?
Aside from the obvious (lose weight, continue practicing), I've found that a positive attitude will go a long way to helping me acheive my goals in dance. When I give myself permission to be who I am at this moment, no matter what that self may look like, I find myself dancing better. My step is lighter and my jumps lift off the ground a bit higher. I can't help but grin at my reflection in the mirror. I haven't given up my pursuit of a healthier, more flexible dancing body, but in the meantime I plan on enjoying every opportunity I have to dance.
After all, a smile stomping around the stage is more fun to watch than unhappy perfection.

ReplyDeleteWhat a lovely post, it makes me want to keep going, although I doubt I'll ever be good enough to compete - I just want to have that high you get when you are able enough to lose yourself in the dance. Keep on dancing!!
ReplyDeleteThank you Erica. We all have to decide how much time and effort to devote to the good things that fill our lives. Have fun dancing!

ReplyDeleteWhen social dancing, there are some basic rules of etiquette that dancers are expected to follow. Learning these rules will give you a better relationship with other dancers, which will allow you to socialize more and enjoy dancing to an even great degree than you did before. Belly Dancing
