friday’s modern jazz class again. third one with the same #choreography. and still… i keep messing things up. it’s funny – during the class, i often think i’m doing fine. the rhythm, the energy, the #flow – all good. but then i watch the recording, and damn… i can see everything. the shoulders that go up instead of staying relaxed. the steps that are just a bit too wide. the head movement that doesn’t fit. and all the ten thousand other things. all those tiny details that make a big difference.
but I actually like this process. I like seeing what’s wrong, noticing what needs to change. it’s like fixing a puzzle – piece by piece, frame by frame. that’s why i keep recording my dances and putting them on the blog. it’s not about showing off, it’s about keeping track. watching myself learn. learning to see what i couldn’t see before.
and maybe that’s the best part of all this – not dancing perfectly, but dancing a bit better every time.
