As you might have already read in my blogpost of the IDCF (international dance camp festival) I love to move my body along to music. I don’t care wether it is a slow dance where you have to put in a lot of emotions or a night out dancing to all kinds of music in the club.

Dancing is something you can always do. In the morning to a song on the radio or in front of the mirror with a song in your head.

When it comes to dancers I look up to my mother. She was part of a dance production when I was little and when I saw her dancing on stage I knew that I wanted to do that as well.

I’ve tried a lot of different styles and at the moment I’m most into commercial hip-hop. I’ve never done ballroom dance though. If someone is interested in taking ballroom dance classes with me hit me up. 😉

Some Fun Facts about Dance:

• Dancing is very beneficial to your health. It lowers the chances for heart and blood vessel diseases, improves posture and weight, reduces stress and tension, improve brain function because of constant presence of music, and can improve relationship between dance partners.
• First ballroom dance that was ever created is Italian Viennese Waltz.
• My Grandparents met each other when they participated in a ballroom dance class.
• Many historical waves of dances were perceived as the “destructors” of the old way of dance. Examples of that can be found in the 1920’s Charleston and the era of Rock music.
