I stopped dancing. Well, at least for now. Things have been pretty rough in Studio, well being an assistant instructor (going-to-be instructor) in my studio had been not such a smooth path for me. Many things that I saw and felt was terrible, things went bad to worse.. put me into more reasons to stop servicing with the studio. So.. I stopped teaching… and I stopped dancing at this moment. Would I come back to dance? I’m not sure, pretty much gotta’ wait till my financial opens up alittle bit more..
I’ve never been to studio for quite awhile. Sometimes I do wonder what happen in studio, how are my friends doing along? Well, I missed the joy of dancing.. especially coming to competitions. However, this hobby is really expensive, out of my expectation. I thought having to teach to able to lessen my burden on financing this hobby.. still, it had made it worsen. With the little side income that I earn from teaching, wasn’t able to cover even my expenses going there.. with a few advice from a few, I decided I should just take it as a past-time hobby, not to teach.
I’m no where in the dancing world, latin and standard levels mine were half-past 6 if compared to even competitors. Quite a shame that we couldn’t continue on happily, things happen out of expectations. I don’t even know if its possible for us to go back studio to continue learning. I wish I could. And that’s only to take lessons and learn, nothing more than it. I want nothing in.
I’ll continue to strive for more income to support myself. Since the beginning of my work, which is around 5months+ now, I’m slowly getting the hang on my current lifestyle, slowly bit by bit I’ll definitely come back to get back the feeling of joy of dancing! I want that kinda feeling back!
OMG- How come you learn dancing like that.
This is totally bullshit,since when does learning to dance have to cost soooooo much. This is absolutely ridiculous.
Back in the day the old batch of malaysian /singapore pros all came from simple back grounds what makes you think you need all this money.Even your Uncle Alex also didnt have to spend alot until probabaly after turn am or pro.
Plenty of places 70 + a lesson still able to get you to am level 2-3years with some hard work.
Stop being a little fish swimming in a small pond. You can get some practise at KLDA cheras or YMCA at very low cost and just ask some of the uncles teach yo abit ah.. to dance pre-amp level aiyo not as difficult as you think.
still young mah .. get a good teacher that wants to teach u ask the good dancers where they take there lessons who teaching the am and pro couples at the moment.
hey EastisRed, please add me on msn! harryatl[@]hotmail.com.
I would be more than happy if you could help me out, pointing me to the right direction.
To be frank, our lesson costs more than what you’ve said.
