My Experience Of Dance

I have participated in many different activities and sports over the years, but the one that has stuck with me the most is dance. I started dancing when I was only seven years old, and went on to join a competitive dance team for four years. Dancing has given me many opportunities, such as being part of a team, performing, competing, and the chance to express myself through movement. Participating in dance for so many years gave me the chance to volunteer as an assistant to some of the younger dancers at my dance school, which allowed me to gain leadership skills such as communication and commitment, as well gain teaching experience. At my middle school last year, I was a co-president of the student council, and my job was to lead weekly meetings with the younger students at my school, also contributing to my leadership background.

I shot a desperate look back at the table. Marren looked down, and his sister looked away. No one looked back at me. The focus of the room was on one’s own hands, or on the floor.

He was able to answer questions by pointing at pictures. Throughout the day, he would return to her classroom because he began to feel comfortable. She also began to teach the English alphabet while utilizing the Chinese alphabet (Igoa, 1995).

I found that these people possessed a method of communicating their experience and feelings to one another by articulate sounds. I perceived that the words they spoke sometimes produced pleasure or pain, smiles or sadness, in the minds and countenance of the hearers. This was indeed a godlike science, and I ardently desired to become acquainted with it¡K. Their pronunciation was quick; and the words they uttered, not having any apparent [connexion] with visible objects, I was unable to discover any clue by which I could unravel the mystery of their reference.

My personal aesthetic in the terms of dance extends far beyond mentioning what I like and what I dislike. It unfolds the layers of my personality, my style, and my past experiences. I tend to think of aesthetics in the form of a jigsaw puzzle. Within a puzzle there are hundreds of important pieces that fit together to make a grand image and each puzzle piece requires a process of development and self-discovery. My aesthetic puzzle pieces include confidence, vulnerability, dynamic, high energy, illusion, and emotional connection. Most of my aesthetic is initiated by personal preference or a significant event in my life, but I will start with the foundation of my dance training first. I was raised in the dance studio where I regularly practiced ballet, jazz, tap, musical theatre, and contemporary. I was blessed to have the opportunity to explore multiple genres of dance at a young age and as a result of this, I began my aesthetic development with a very versatile palette of movements and interpretations.

In late parts you learned how to understand your subjects clearer, to master your fear of failure and how to practice your draftsmanship determinedly.

The quote, “Dancing with the feet is one thing, but dancing with the heart is another,” has a lots of meaning to me. It shows that you need to focus more of what your heart is telling you while dancing, oppose to focusing more on the choreography. Some dancers never learn this and end up giving up on dancing. Others, connect to it right off the bat. I was one of those people.

Even in the early stages of writing, the concept of drawing shapes that could be interpreted as sound and meaning for non-privy parties fascinated me. I distinctly recall begging my elder sister to take a break from her homework and teach me this foreign art, to which she always obliged after a long day of classes and exhaustions of her own. Eventually, after learning my letters and sounds, my lovely sister felt it was more practical for herself and beneficial for myself to read her coursework aloud. The main ideas, meaning of words, and plots were my tasks. She could not have predicted how much it would later mean to me, both for our familial bond and the direction of my life toward

When individuals look at each other, by strange transformation, both the viewer and the person being viewed, both become the subject and object of each other (Sylvester, 1992). This is more of a dialect of an intimate gaze. As it has been said before, the eyes are the windows to the soul, and just by gazing at the eyes, an individual is likely to be emotionally attached. In this sense, eyes are not only used to see objectives, but they are important in creating connections, which could go as far as making two people to fall in love with one
