Blah. I don't know what I'm looking for here, I guess just for some understanding.
So I started dancing.. well, technically at age 3 but didn't like the fact that my mom couldn't watch so I quit. So then I started again when I was five years old, in Kindergarten. I started in the middle of the year, when my teacher was getting the spring recital ready.
Somehow, I picked up really fast, and my teacher loved me and apparently I was very good.
I kept dancing until fourth grade.. i had made a new best friend who had no after school activities, and decided that we never had time together if i danced every week. So I quit. But I missed it too much, and the next year, I went back. But when I did return, I felt like I had missed a whole bunch of stuff. I felt like a horrible dancer. I was clumsy, couldn't learn the steps right, I don't know what happened. I kept on dancing though until 6th grade, but at the end of that year, my teacher was pretty much kicked out of the studio. Some new people took over and the next year, I continued ballet with a new teacher. None of my friends liked her, she wasn't our old teacher. I also decided to try out for the school play. I got the chorus part and was barely in it so I quit. The next year I tried jazz and tap. My jazz teacher hated me, never corrected me, didn't pay attention to me at all. In the school play, Peter Pan, I played the part of an indian but they put me in the back, and didn't let me do any of the *special* dances. I was only in the basic dances that everyone was in. Apparently, I was horrible. So I quit dancing. Last summer, I decided to try again, but I felt like I was bad, and the teachers didn't like me, etc. So I quit again. At that point, what I wanted to do was be really good, so I could *be a dancer*, maybe be on Broadway and be famous. But now, I watch So You Think You Can Dance, and all I want to do is dance. I want to do it for fun. I miss it so much. But I feel like I'm horrible. And that may be because of my social anxiety, but I can't be sure if I'm just horrible, or nervous. I want to be good at dancing, so I can have fun doing it, but I don't know if it's even possible for everyone to be good at dancing or if you have to already have talent. I don't know.

I've been dancing my whole life too...and never was good at it....my teacher just had me standing in the back row and never dance a solo
