It shouldn’t seem so earth-shaking a concept. But every time I take this new class, I get literal double takes from all my comrades at the dance studio. Not totally sure why. I love trying something completely out of my comfort zone. That is how I ended up working with quite a few different choreographers. Qi-gong and yoga and movie musicals were not my specialty but I like to believe that a dancer can dance just about anything. I had been admiring the hip hop class from afar (a good sign that I’m about to jump into something new is when I hang outside the doorway for a few weeks.) I got past the twinge of concern about all the strange looks I might get and actually got a friend to join me and we are having a grand old time (which is the point, remember?) But, man, I get a lot of looks. Join me next time, scaredy cats!
