Finding our rhythm is essential. It comes from within. At times, we must learn to dance through the chaos.

Listen to the music.
Fall down and then get back up to try again. It’s OK.
Learn how to work with a partner.
Spin in a new direction.
Feel your inner beauty. Feel beautiful and be beautiful.
Trust your partner.
Take a risk every time you step out there.
Lose yourself in the moment.
Stay open and be fearless.
Commit.
Find your footing.
Feel free to take chances.
Follow someone else’s lead at times.
Know how to dance a solo.
Stay open to learning a new routine.
Practice. Practice. Practice.
Try your best. Give it your all.
Know it’s OK not to be perfect.
Stretch your mind and your body.
Enjoy the process.
Take time to hear the music and never forget that in life we need to enjoy the moments. Feel the dance. It’s over very quickly.
