I’m only 4'11"! I use to take ballet and tap when I was younger but I suck at dancing now. I would love to learn how to dance
After about a year and a half of getting back into ballet, I finally got into pointe shoes again this morning. It wasn’t easy, but I did it. And that in itself is kind of a miracle. 😂 (at New York, New York)
You know what sucks more than a sprained ankle? Knowing that you can’t get back on pointe for a while. Dance has become my escape, and my stress reliever. I hate that I have to be away from it, even if it is for a bit.
I wasn’t asked to a single dance in high school and didn’t have a serious romantic relationship until I was 22. And like, yeah that shit hurt when I was younger. I had a lot of fears that I was unlovable and that I didn’t deserve to be happy. And every time I would try to talk to anyone about it, the conversation became, “you’ll find someone”, when it should have been, “you don’t need a relationship or a date, you’re lovable & complete & beautiful on your own”.
So yeah, please normalize young people not dating, and please stop shaming them for it. There’s more to life than romance, despite what the media wants us to think.

I did ballet, tap, cheerleading, and softball. Then in high school I took theater for 3 years. I wish I would have stayed in it for my SR. Year but I had a teacher who hated me. My SR. Year I was a diamond doll ⚾️
