What has been your most memorable dance experience?
My very first ballet class, I never felt more uncomfortable in my life. Black leotards and pink tights have never been in style, and never complimenting on a full figured woman. Trying to hold your stomach, lift your hips, tighten your buns and inter thighs seemed to be an impossible task for the first time. But they say that ballet is the foundation for all forms of dance. I got used to it and learn to love it.
