Defining Dance.

So everyone's been asking me how I got involved into these dance stuffs.

I dont know either. It just happened. I got to know more about dance by accident.

The accident that I am grateful of :)

Long time ago (maybe 5/6 years ago), there was an audition to become the cheerleaders members of my Junior High School cheers squad. I didnt pay any attention, I am telling you, AT ALL. Well, I had dance class at elementary school but that was all. Once elementary was over, this dance stuff was so. But at that jahiliyah moment (I refer to my JHS moments) I had best friend, Camilla (I simply call her Cumpi -and we're still best friends even in distance) and she was so famous (like, jeez, can u imagine. we were still freshmen, from elementary to junior high and she had already been known by the peeps there even by the 3rd grader, it was like she was the princess and I was the pauper....) by the fact that she loved dancing and the cheers members invited her to join the audition. Cumpi said okay, BUT, with the condition that me and some of my other friends join too. So......blablablablabla we were accepted and this journey began.

The more you do something, the more you know it. I learn by doing. I did not know what dance is at all that moment. But everything was like a fast movie, it flies so fast that finally I am here, experiencing my 7th year of dancing.

Later I knew, dancing is not only about moving your body. Dancing is way more beautiful than that. To dance is to express your soul, your feeling, your emotion, your love, your anger, everything. To dance is to really feel what is inside my mind. Like free-ing anything. I can be happy and sad at the same time. Dancing is to deliver something. Energy and passion. More than that, dancing is a tribute. To people, to art, to society. Dancing is a dedication. There aint no way you can dance without you being dedicated to something. That way, I always try my best at any dance I danced. Not to show people that I am a good dancer, no, not at all. Just to show them I appreciate them, by giving them the best entertainment I can give at my best. So they get something, my message, without me telling them but by my moves.

So dancing is pure to me. I'd rather not doing dance moves at all than dancing without preparation.

Because like I've told you, dancing is not just dance.



It is the love of my life, and I want to give my love the best I have.
