My Passion For Dance

“And 5, 6, 7, 8!” Along with music and dance, this line itself gave me utter joy. For me, it was the meaning of a new beginning. A beginning in which each dancer came together to perform as one. United as one, we all spoke the same language, the language of dance. Dance and medicine have no direct correlation, but for me, they are one. Dancing on stage, in front of an audience, gave me this thrill and excitement that I never felt while doing other things in life. And it always had me coming back

“Dance, a hidden language of the soul.” Says Martha Graham. This directly relates to my life, sometimes it seems that everything is about dance, dance practice,dance uniforms,dance teachers. Dance has been my passion since I was 8 years old. I remember having no clue what I was doing when I first started dancing.

Art can only be true when it’s a passion, when it’s raw and makes you feel something deeper than what you are as a being. It’s supposed to bring your passion and emotions out into the physical world.

In my freshman year, I joined the Art Club and was inducted into the National Art Honor Society at the end of the year for my involvement in the art program at Columbus High. I joined French Club at the beginning of sophomore year. I have been studying ballet for ten years, and have been a member of the Columbus Ballet company for three years.

My hope for college is to gain knowledge of different styles of dance and the science of how the body moves. Along with my passion for dance I have a strong fascination for how the body moves and works. My goal is to study both kinesiology and dance in college so that I can eventually get a job in both dance and physical therapy. My short term objective is to continue working as Dance Teacher/Assistant while in college. My passion for dance combined with my love for working with children sparked
