Dancing has been part of your life since you were in ballet and tap 1. Now your in college and want to get back into the studio that helped you escape from all your problems.

Here’s what to expect when you go back into the dance world:

1. All the students in the class just stare because they have no idea who you are or what you are doing there.

They may even ask if you’re their teacher.

2. You realize your body doesn’t bend like it used to.

We take advantage of our youth.

3. It’s combo time and you remember how to “feel the music” again.

 

It’s like you never left.

4. Class is almost over and you seem to be the only one sad about it.

“But we can do the combo four more times.”

5. Class is over, you feel great, but know you’ll be sore tomorrow.

You might feel sore because you are getting too old for this.

6. But deep down inside, you’re super excited for your next dance class. 

The friendships and life skill made through dance will always outweigh the blood, sweat and tears.
