DanceWorks!

So when I finished my senior year of dance, I told everyone that was it for me. When I went to college, I was sure that I wanted to try new things (things I had never gotten to do because I was always at the dance studio) and I also just wanted to focus on schoolwork.

Right well. That philosophy worked out for the first three months or so. It was nice not having to do parades or go to summer dance classes. But as soon as I got to SU, it pretty much hit me.

I can't live without dance class! My body was absolutely begging me to go do some splits and some pirouettes. I could feel it.

So, I signed up for DanceWorks, which is a performance team here. They offer every style of dance you can imagine, AND  you have to try-out. Which is good. Try-outs are good.

But I haven't danced since the beginning of June, and holy cow! I went to the workshops on Monday and Tuesday (and going again tonight!) and my legs are screaming in agony! The only time I don't feel sore is when I'm sleeping. And I had spin class this morning and that was killer on the legs too.

However, going four months without dance class made me realize. I do actually miss it. I was definitely having doubts about dance as the end of my senior year came closer. And now I see. Dance is just as much a part of me as homework is!
