We’ve talked before about the joys and challenges we face along our dance journeys. From the struggles of learning to dance to navigating the social structures of our community to disappointment in competitions, we often experience a range of highs and lows. And sometimes, for a whole host of reasons, we just lose our passion for dancing. In this episode, we talk about our current feelings towards dance. Eric, fresh off a two-week vacation, shares his feelings of apathy and ennui towards dance, and Deborah shares her own frustrations and experiences with the dance world. We discuss our observations about the ups and downs in dancing, the importance of our lives outside of dance, and the different ways we recharge and rejuvenate so we can continue to enjoy dancing. It’s a personal and introspective episode that hopefully helps some others facing similar experiences.
