This week I had a supercool opportunity (that will last 3 more weeks) to teach my co-workers DANCE! For those of you who don't know, I taught dance for 5 years, grew up taking dance lessons and it's just been a giant influence in my life.
For the past 5 yearsish, I haven't found a studio at which to teach. Granted, I haven't looked that hard, either. I really, REALLY loved the studio I used to teach at and just don't feel like anything else could compare to it. But this opportunity has been a great way to get back in to teaching without a ton of pressure. I'm teaching adults who just want a bit of a work out and to have fun. I can help them accomplish both of those!
The first week went very well and I have no doubt that next week will be lots of fun as well. I am a bit sore (hello, it's been five years since I've taught!), but other than that, felt like I could jump right back in to teaching.
The theme of the evening was "80's Dance Night" and I taught a lesson in jazz dancing. We ended the night by learning a routine to Prince's "Kiss." The ladies totally worked it. We decided to continue this theme and routine for next week's class as well. Wednesday evenings have become much more exciting!
