I really want
to learn hip hop dancing.
I learned a
little bit of hip hop when I studied dance when I was younger, but not
intensively. See, the studio where I practiced was strictly ballet. And then
every once in a while, we would have a ‘fun day’ where we would work on some
jazz, some hip hop or some gymnastics, etc. Ballet was the focus and everything else was just kind of tossed in
there.
I can’t dance
ballet very well anymore because of an injury to my knee. But I miss the fluidity and strength that comes with dance. When I
watched some hip hop videos online, I noticed that the style, while still
technically intensive and very rigorous, was a little easier on the knees and
ankles then a strenuous ballet routine.
I’m not the
type of person who would really go seeking an instructor in dance or classes at
a studio. I have enough in my schedule that showing up once or twice a week
somewhere is nearly impossible. Plus,
lessons cost money. I’m more of a self-taught person.
So we’ll see
how it goes.
Challenge to
my Readers:
Movement for
your body is like air for your lungs. Do something, even if it’s something you
have never considered trying before.
