This was me after my first proper performance with the Pro Team, costume and all!
I was so proud of holding my own (but also knowing I had lots to work on still). I was incredibly nervous, as we waited on the side. We were up early in the set (but not too early). We all worked so hard up to this point in preparation for a big performance.
We didn't end up being able to grace the stage with this routine in Europe. Looking back, even if we knew we wouldn't have performed, I'd like to think I would have worked just as hard.
I found it a challenging routine. From the start, which was a slow & soulful cha cha, to a blindingly fast salsa, later in the piece. It challenged the control of my body within the music as well as my expression of the story within the team.
While I take a forced break from dancing, I'm dreaming of my next challenge.
What are you challenging yourself with during this time?
