The Beginning

I can't  confidently claim that there was anything particularly exciting about the time I started dance- that is to say, there wasn't anything really memorable about it. It just kind of began and then quickly slid into a sort of  routine, without much thought put into it. I started my dancing career with tap lessons at my town's recreational center, under the guidance of a ruddy faced woman with long blonde hair. For the next year or so, I took those classes, my mother dutifully shuttling me back and forth to lessons in her burgundy station wagon. Around the time I finished kindergarten, I quit tap lessons and began taking ballet at a dance academy closer to my home. During my first recital, I tripped and fell onstage, and promptly forgot all the steps of my dance. Despite the mishaps that occurred throughout my early years of dancing, I stuck with what I loved, and, through a series of twists and turns of fate, have found myself here, writing a blog about my dancing career. What's the purpose of this blog? To entertain as well as inform. I will include in this blog: Stories of my dancing career, interviews with various dancing teachers, advice for beginners, and maybe even a few dancing pictures I find pretty. Enjoy!
