DanceSteps-n-Dancing - My Mother was a Dance Teacher.

By Alan Smith

Are you passionate about Dance? I am. I'm a guy with a passion that is perhaps way beyond my ability but still my dream must go on. I have created DanceSteps-n-Dancing to fuel my passion for dancing. It is a forum to express your joy of dance, a place to share your thoughts and view some videos.

As a Dance Instructor my Mother's first love was dancing. She had her own dance school and also Instructed at a renowned School in Melbourne Australia. Melbourne is my birthplace. My mother wanted me to join her dance classes at an early age but I was reluctant to follow in her footsteps and I continually refused her efforts. My younger days of dancing were short lived for alas my mother died young seeing only the early days of my manhood.

As the years past by I again had thoughts of dancing and was tempted to test my dance floor ability. Perhaps my dancing was a little gangly at first but in time I managed to gain some style and posture. Is it possible that my childhood training by my kind mother was beginning to shine? I am sure it is and I would like my mother to somehow know.

Dance and its appeal to our heart and soul is an echo of primal instincts. Many centuries have passed since man began his influence on this planet. As we developed our senses of sight and touch we started our journey forward and when we stimulated recognition of sound we found rhythmic dancing patterns were driven to our feet.

My love for dance and the friendships and the meetings of so many people have brought me to think of dance almost as a way of life. Sometimes in conversation I need to remind myself that others may have differing interests. Interests they might like to talk about too! How dare they! We are all different and that is what makes our world's go round.

My website is not in memory of my mother. She is just there. Perhaps with a guiding hand. DanceSteps-n-Dancing with Dance moves too is a site for you to come and experience the dance thoughts of others. You may post about anything related to dance, tell about your dance steps and dance moves experience, or just tell us your thoughts and memories.

It has a business aspect too. DanceSteps-n-Dancing has links to sites with paid and free dance steps, dancing videos and how to start a blog like this one to express your own thoughts or produce an income are gathered through out the pages.

Developing self confidence has been a wonderful benefit of my learning to dance. My self esteem has grow to new levels and I have acquired skills for many joys in life. Dancing to music removes your boredom of silent activities for you can change your environment simply by changing the dance music. Dancing is a great exercise routine too. - 14915
