DANCE
an essay- by Vinoth
Dancing is a form of expressing one's self that can give a person the chance to build their own success. It allows a person a chance to expand their creativity, confidence and talent. It also keeps them out of trouble as long as they join the right crew. It is also a way of relieving stress. Once a person embraces dancing as a hobby it can definitely improve their lifestyle.
Dancing gives a person the chance to improve their creativity, confidence and talent. It does so because although everyone can do dancing, it is still not an easy thing to do. Because they are achieving something that is fun but at the same time difficult they are increasing talent, which then allows them to be more comfortable with their body and become far more confident. Dancing is also something that requires a person to have their own style and preference, which then leads to them having more creativity. Dancing also allows a person to be better at interacting socially if they are confident enough to show off their talent.
Dancing is also something that can keep mischievous children out of trouble if they join the right dance crew. It brings people together that all have a common goal of just having fun and improving their dance skills. Dancing also keeps people open-minded as a result of seeing all these other styles and viewpoints because dancers also tend to respect one another when they are in a crew. This is the case because normally crews consist of dancers that are close friends and are also comfortable with sharing their dancing with each other as well as being able to mix everyone’s talents into one good performance. Crew battles are also good because they encourage the crews to get to know each other as well as get individual dancers to show off their full potential. Joining the right type of crew as a dancer can be very beneficial for a dancer just as joining the wrong crew might get a person into trouble, but that is not normally the case.
Dancing is a great way of relieving stress. If a dancer is angry or depressed they can just play some music and let the rhythm move their body. Dancing is something that can relax a person’s mind and body because once they start dancing they will only focus on their music and their moves. When they start doing their moves they can also have an opportunity to be creative and create new moves. Since dancing relieves stress it can also keep a dancer away from drugs. Overall dancing is very good for a person.
We now know that dancing can improve a person's life in many ways. It can makes them better at interacting socially because it can increase their creativity, confidence and talent. We know that there are many dance crews out there that have very good people as well as dancers that can be very good role-models for young children. Lastly dancing can also relieve a person's stress, which is very important because it can make it easier to deal with difficult times in a person's life. From all this it is easy to tell that dancing can be a very important ingredient for a successful person.
