Dance has always been apart of my life for as long as anyone can remember. According to my parents I have been dancing since before I was born. I started performing/demonstrating British/American folk dancing at the age of 3. By age 5, I started taking ballet classes and eventually took jazz, modern, tap — you name it, and I've probably taken at least one class in that style. With all this dance in my life no wonder I love dance!

1. Speaking with no words

As a kid I was always the shy one. I didn't like to talk that much. However, dance helps me say what I want without speaking.

2. Renews energy

You would think that by dancing you would lose energy. And you would become tired from dancing. Although it is true that you become tried by dancing, you are given new energy to keep going, and it refreshes you.

3. Lifelong friends

Through taking dance classes, I have made many of my closest and dearest friends. No matter the distance between us, nothing can get in between us. Dance gave me my best friend for life!

4. Discipline

Through dance you learn what you can and cannot do. They work you hard, but that's the best part. Because of how much you get worked you become a stronger person.

5. Happiness

Being able to do what I love always makes me happy. Dancing always brings me happiness and joy.

These are just a few of the reasons why I love dance. There are many more reasons. But there are not enough words to explain my love for dance. I hope you enjoyed this article, and if you have any reasons why you love to dance, feel free to comment them below! I'd love to hear from my readers!
