Dance Studio Analysis

889 Words4 Pages

As I walked into the dance studio I realized how small I was compared to the other students in intermediate. I was shorter than the other by a lot, I felt a little awkward around the other girls. I was just glad morgan was there with me and she was short too. The teacher soon showed us our first combination, and it was pretty hard. I was a little scared. I thought to myself Why am I here? Am I ready? I was glad I wasn't the only one who moved up. If I didn't have morgan with me I would feel very alone. The dance seemed so much harder than the year before. I almost wanted to leave, but at the same time I was so excited. I was thinking to myself, this is awesome, never mind I want to leave now.
My dance studio moved me up a level. I was excited but scared. I kind of wanted to leave but I wanted to stay and learn. My teachers and my studio/workshop thought I was ready. I did well in years before so I got moved up. I was moved up into intermediate dance from beginning intermediate. I was very excited to move up …show more content…

I try to practice so i won't make the same mistake twice. Also I try to do my stretches every night because im not as flexible as the other girls. I often feel confused about combinations. And I tend to forget combinations after the teacher shows them. I feel happy when I remember combinations, I also am very proud when I don't need to look at anyone for help. I like learning all the new things the teachers are showing us. I like learning new moves,and like to work on them so the look nice and clean when I do them. I work hard on movies I like so that I can do them right. Because I moved up I'm meeting lots of new people. There are lots of girls in the level who have been in the same level for a while, so it is fun to meet them and have them help you. Intermediate is the level before JRC (junior repertory company) which is very hard to get into, so lots of girls stay in intermediate for a while before they get

The teacher was looking right at me. I took this single moment of individual attention from the teacher and jogged around to join the next group to show that I could do it better. I redeemed myself and did the combination perfectly, or at least what an eleven year old thinks is perfect. At the end of the class the teacher smiled at me and said I did well. Two weeks later I got a later form the Nutmeg Ballet Conservatory saying I got in.

One new dance move blossomed into five others and a conversation sparked a fresh relationship, which sparked ten more. We started learning new moves almost in a chaotic fashion and friendships began to quickly blossom in our group. My perseverance during that time has kept me in ballet, something that I am eternally grateful for. The discipline and character that ballet has taught me is something that I seriously doubt I personally would have been able to learn from any other sport.

This was a one-week long period where everyone is evaluated on her skills. There were things like drills and running to keep us busy.

I used the time I had to better my skills, not only in dancing and tossing flags but also in working with people. By the end of the season, I could do a lot of new things with my flag and rifle that I never was able to before. In addition, I talked a bit with my coaches and old color guard captains to gain their advice on how I could be a stronger leader. Finally, our following application process began, and I was overly excited to try again, and hopefully get my desired position.

Elie Wiesel’s work, Night, published in 1958, demonstrates the struggles Jewish society and other minorities faced in order to live a life of liberty. I, myself, felt bound and trapped, but not by iron doors, but by words. Even though being open and social can help communication growth, rudeness and unnecessary judgement can hinder one’s ability to be social and make them feel like expressing themselves is not possible. August 21, 2010, as my mother pulled up to the side of Georgetown Middle School, I remember thinking “I hope Mrs. Hope gives me hope.” My blood was pounding from the adrenaline, and my stomach was in knots knowing that in a few moments, I would be taking my first steps into an unusual environment for the next three years.

Those days were always the best three weeks I 've had in my life just because I 've always wanted to be a dancer and the fact that I was able to even perform at MY party was amazing, and we always practiced for three hours, so you really know that we couldn’t mess up. Of course, we would take our little breaks in between our rehearsal, honestly what got a lot better was that I was able to dance to my favorite singer, her name is Jennifer Lopez, I 've always wanted to be like her growing up, she also dances and I let my teacher know about that and we watched her video to the song that I was going to dance too and we added a lot of her dance moves into my routine and I literally felt like I was dancing just like her. It got even better, the whole idea of it being it a surprise dance is that no one of my family member 's or anyone I knew was able to go in there with me because it would defeat the whole purpose of it being a surprise.

I felt a bit nervous, and definitely scared. Mostly because I wondered what people thought of me as, because I’m not like other freshman. And, It was actually better than I expected. The classmates were friendly, they weren’t rude, and they welcomed me with open arms. So I guess I learned a lesson that year, other than just acceptance.
