nothing else and I can just enjoy and focus on the activity on its own. Consequentially, I spent a lot of time doing it and became quite good at dancing, and there were many people out there who would criticize and be very jealous of me. By accepting my dance as a free gift and not worry about living up to the expectations of all these people, I can more freely participate it by not have their judgments cloud my mind and focus solely on my dancing. Trying to explain it as something other than a…

This movement grew from the idea that dance could go beyond simple entertainment: it could be used and be sued by people as a form of communication and expression of personal feelings. By the middle of the 20th century, the modern dance movement had paved the way for dance pioneers to develop the concept of dance therapy. Marian Chace, Mary Whitehouse, and Trudy Schoop were just a few pioneers of this emerging concept. By the 1940s, dance therapy was influenced by the psychodynamic theory…

From a very young age, I have been very involved in athletics and competitive sports. From the age of 4 until age 7, I was part of a ballet, jazz, tap, and acro, competitive dance team. Later on, I moved to figure skating and trained in the sport for nine years. Unfortunately, I was forced to retire from skating, due to some serious calf issues involving 3 surgeries. For this reason, I transitioned to rowing; which is a non-impact sport that would allow me to continue training at a…

as many opportunities as possible for myself and unquestionably try to stand out in auditions. Furthermore, in the short couple months since I have really committed to this, I have won an all-star scholarship, a tap scholarship from a professional tap company, and opportunities to dance all over the country during the summer. Consequently, I have realized what an advantage you can have throughout life when you decide to step out of what feels familiar to us, because life throws you curveballs…

immediately be directed towards the metaphoric implications of each movement, but these metaphoric processes operate as a fundamental characteristic of dance. Physical gestures are an innate characteristic of the way people communicate with each other as they “…can reveal aspects of meaning that are not, or even cannot, be present in words alone” (Kövecses 72). Dance, at its simplest definition, is but an exaggeration of these human gestures; the choreographer can manipulate the movement…

proof. The first time I remember dancing was when I was around five years old, in tap class, learning a move called the coffee grinder. I remember looking in the mirrors as I swung my leg around and jaggedly jumped over it multiple times before I could get the move down. I felt super proud of myself when I was the first one in my class to master the move, well the best a five year old can master a move. My memories of dance have grown since then. I remember the first time I set my eyes on…

I love dance, social media, Taylor Swift, history, and learning new things. I started dance when I was about two years old. I continued doing ballet and tap until I was about ten because I didn't find it fun anymore. However, about two years ago, I watched a show on TV called Dance Academy. It was a fiction show about this ballet school in Sydney, Australia. This was what got me so interested in ballet. Since I was attending a private school, I didn't have the time or the money to start taking…
