Dancing for me is strange. The more I learn, the more I feel I know so little. I love being in the class with people from different background, countries and purposes of life. Many people think dance is more for kids and teenagers but for me dancing is for everyone who love to do it. I went to a Ballet class and saw people from 10 years old until 60 years old in the same class and they all looks fantastic. Why not?
I love all my teachers, the older they got, the graceful their movements are. I remember that I took Flamenco class with Mariano Parra. He was in mid 60s and still look gorgeous every step he moved. He told me 'Less is More' which quoted by Mies van der Rohe, the famous architect in 1960s and it is true. May be the next blog, I should talk about all these dance philosophies.
I have befriended with many of my teachers and people that I regularly take dance class with. Later on, I realize it is not only the drive to be a better dancer that pushes me to go to class, but also the feeling of wanting to go see them and be in the dance class with them that keep me going back to study.
You do not learn just steps in the class and then go home, be the best dancer by yourself. Studying dance gives you another dimension of life how to live together, accept and respect each other. I was frustrated when people told me they like to learn from YouTube or by themselves. It shows many things in their personalities. They might say they don't have money but they didn't know that they are missing the main point of being a dancer, be in a community where people know how to support each other. That is a very nice feeling to be in.
