Personal Narrative: My Experience At Impact Dance Studio

Dance began as a form of communication and storytelling. Thousands of years ago dancing served as a way for people to tell a story and helped distract themselves of the hardships they faced. Furthermore, dance was a form of storytelling through communication, which then turned into using storytelling through dance as entertainment. According to the History World, many dancers during the BC time danced in front of only a few people to get a story across. That later turned into hundreds of thousands of people as dance was used by many. Today, dance is also a form of entertainment and storytelling, but in a modern sense. However, today perfection and technique are stressed more than they were in the past. Yet, the passion for dance has not changed. Many dancers who share this passion also have many of the same qualities. Among a discourse community of trained dancers, one expects to find individuals who are healthy and active athletes, expect perfection from themselves through competition, and religiously attend dance performances.

People often think that dancing is just about having to do a routine, but it isn’t. I just don’t dance, I perform, I breath, I count, I see the world slowly fade away. I create my own little place to be safe in. I release my feelings, and thoughts. I tear down the walls that stop me from being happy, and that allows me not to be angry anymore. I lose the pain, and I let go of that girl that is full of hurt, and I smile. It is not just about doing a dance it is much more than that. What I do is something wonderful that I can not find the words to express how amazing it makes me

Dancers are often called the 'athletes of the arts' and like athletes they undergo years of hard physical training in pursuit of excellence. It is exhilarating watching human beings perform extraordinary and courageous physical feats. In dance, this energy is used to tell stories and convey ideas, creating very powerful experiences that can be dramatic, moving and even funny. (The Autralian Ballet, 2010) However, if you are one of those people who have always thought you had two left feet, or are just starting out, don’t allow any negative thoughts deprive you of the happiness that dancing brings.  No matter what style: jazz, ballroom, belly dance or just plain shaking it to your favorite tune, dancing is one of the greatest joys in life. It can transform your attitude in a second and transport you into pure bliss. Dancing is for everyone.

Dance is explored in a sacred way on the pages of Winton-Henry’s book. This essay identifies the author’s intent for the work as well as summarizes the key points made about the role dance serves in our lives and how to incorporate

When your mind wants to express something, you speak. When your heart wants to express something, your face does the talking. Similarly, dance is the body’s way of expressing itself.

Ever wondered what it would be like to leap through life, twirl right through, as if the world has completely stopped around you? To be able to pause everything in a silence that allows you to hear your own heartbeat? The silence on stage as you perform is a sense of peace within your inner body that is being channeled through a movement of effortless motion. In European history, dance was considered to be a way of celebration for many cultures. Although it was said that dance did require physical agility, dancers were never considered athletes because the movement was not taken seriously. Dance did not become popular in a more skillful way until later on. The debate of dance as a sport is very

“To dance means more than just moving your body. You starts with a project, an intention or an emotion. Then you interact with the space creating different atmospheres,” Lobefaro told Clapway.

My experience in the dance field has given me unique qualities that I will carry into the veterinary profession. Through dance I learned to work with a team to perform in unity and to work with everyone’s differences to make a strong team. I believe these are also really important qualities to a veterinary team that I know how to utilize. I also spent some time teaching dance classes which taught me leadership skills, such as decision making and communication. Veterinarians are the leaders of the their team and having prior leadership positions will help me to assume that position

The definition of dance is to, “move rhythmically to music, typically following a set sequence of steps.” But to me, dance means having the ability to create something beautiful and expressing the art form through movement. Although I’ve danced at many different studios with many more teachers, EVQ Dance Studio is perhaps my favorite out of all. I attended a month full of classes from hip hop, jazz, contemporary, and lyrical!

Growing up in a small town called Lauderdale, MS, dancing has been a way for me to see more of the world. I use this artwork as a way to showcase my talents and escape my problems in life. Many people believe that dancing is easy but I think otherwise. In order to dance, a person must work hard, sacrifice time, and grow as a person.

An individual may define dancing as the movement of one’s feet and body, usually accompanied by music. To me, dancing has a more broader meaning. Dance is a unique type of art that involves challenging practices, callused feet, muscles that will be sore for weeks, beauty marks we call bruises, blisters, blood, bedazzled costumes, competitive competitions, and a family of beautiful dancers who share the same passion as you.

Dance is said to have existed prior to the invention of written languages, and was perhaps an essential aspect of storytelling for the passing of knowledge and information from generation to generation. And it has been, since time immemorial, a part of every culture and religion as a means of self and collective expression.

I isolated myself to hide my emotions from all of existence in fear of judgment, dance became my escape to release all my worries. Dance has served such a purpose in my life; I am forever blessed to have been given the ability to dance. I’m stronger, more secure, and forever
