I have to tell someone! (Big girls with BIGGER dreams)
Just as the title implies... I have to tell someone. I have a secret dream. It started by flipping through how-to-dance clips on YouTube.com (good source of exercise, stretching, yoga, etc) after a night out dancing, when I came across a few DIY dance videos by Elastic Illusions. Ever seen someone with a beaming smile? I felt like my whole body was a beaming smile. I have always fantasized about dancing, I've always wished I had been placed in ballet or jazz when I was very young so that it could be some viable career (short lived, but professional and beautiful).
I'm 200lbs and I want to be a break dancer. I haven't even said the words aloud yet. I have been practicing isolation and popping and am excited. How else can I say it? I have never been so excited to learn something physical. I have so far to go, weight loss, strength training, memorizing and practicing different moves and poses... and even the prospect I find enthralling. Since I haven't told my girlfriend, or any of my close friends, I find myself practicing moves in the kitchen or a for a few seconds before I exit a bathroom- while alone at work- or getting up a little early so to have the living room to myself so that I can practice floor work without interruption or discussion.
With that said! Does any one else dance or dream of it?
