I never had imagined myself picking up the art of dance. I was always the clumsy one and the one who no matter how hard she tried to get something to turn out gracefully, it never worked out that way for me. I was determined to get my body to where I wanted to be and saw so many people have so much success gaining strength and muscle tone by picking up pole dancing as well as silk/hammocks. I went to one class just to try it. I was sure I was going to suck at it and hate it, but to my surprise I absolutely loved it!
The atmosphere was so welcoming and inviting, I truly felt like I had belonged there! The women all have been so supportive of each other and we are always happy for each other when we are able to learn a new move we have been working hard on! I love being able to come to a place where it does not feel like a chore to have to go and work out. I used to hate my body and the way I looked, but recently I am feeling more confident than I ever have been since I started my journey at Aerial Dance. I am not only feeling more confident but I truly can see such a different in my overall muscle and I look so much stronger!
While the workouts are definitely challenging, it is truly so rewarding to be able to accomplish new moves you did not think you would ever be able to do in your lifetime! I love the new mindset I have on health and fitness and love that I am able to share it with so many great people that truly want to see you succeed the same way that they do. The instructors are so patient and kind and never make you feel bad if you can’t get something right on the first try. They always push you to succeed and do your best! I love trying different things every day, it is never boring and always fun and exciting!
I truly am so glad I took the leap of faith and decided to try this because it has turned me into a whole different person in the matter of a short amount of time. I can’t wait to see what is next in this chapter!
