What kind of dance class should I take?

Question

I dont dance much. I have always been one of those people who might dance once in a while in their own room. I havent tried any kind of dance forms yet but somehow I feel that want to dance and I want to learn it. Its just that whenever I see some kind of dance movie or just regular dance show I feel so happy and energized. I just wish that I were one of these people dancing and enjoying every moment of it. Do you think dance is a good stress buster? I just dont know where to start. Please help! Thanks.

Answer 1

Definitely take jazz and ballet.

Ballet is a MUST for anyone who wants to a dancer

and most things are based off of jazz.

But lyrical/modern would also be a good choice.

Save tap and hip hop and so forth for later,

when you're a better dancer. :]

Answer 2

Yes! Dance for me relieves a lot of stress. I think you should start out with Jazz dance, it's energizing, fun, and a good workout. You could also take ballet or lyrical. They are both expressive and calm ^-^

Answer 3

I agree, ballet is the best place to start because you will learn a lot about strength and technique.  You'll also learn a lot of dance terminology which is universal in all stylese of dance. Once you start there, you can grow and learn almost anything!  Modern and jazz are a great place to go after studying ballet for a while.  

And yes, Dance is a great stress buster!  You will feel amazing after your classes! Well, maybe not your first class or two :)  but once you get the hang of it, you'll love it!!
