Yesterday, went for a class of modern dance in Stamford Arts Centre along Waterloo Street. Was wondering am I too late to learn....normally people learn these when their young where parents will force their children to learn ballet.Always see children coming out of a school in Marina Parade in their pink tights and skirts....Pei'e,Audrey,Joynes and myself plus another pei'e 's friend were among the first to arrive. Before long, a group of Cedar girls came in to join the class. The instructor is male, and forgot what name. He showed us some steps and imitate his movements. It started slow and became mroe fast pace. I thought it was a beginners class where everyone know zilch in the art and how i was very wrong. Everyone just catch up pretty quick and i found myself falling behind into a tumultuous pit. How i wish i can just bury my head! Haiz...The more i learn the more i get a feeling i'm learning ballet moves, but its actually modern dance. Everyone's moves were more graceful so unlike me, stumbling and pondering what i am doing.....this is far more embarrassing than the days i had to endure pain and exhaustion with canoeing. Dancing isn't an easy task as well as music coordination. My legs and hands do not seem to be in the right places....stiff and uncoorperative. What have i got myself into?? Plus the instructor make some suaning comments which make me feel partly directed at me. Well, what the heck since i want to try,so be it then. I may be bad at first but usually beginners tend to absorb more and improve more then veterans to the art. But i love BoA's freestyle kind of dancing but is nothing similar...anyway i'll try harder and not make a fool of myself.....now want to enquire about Di Zi,Er Hu and Gu Zhen.....
