The #1 rule of dancing is you MUST listen to the music. If you want to stay in time, and move at a specific beat, bar or measure, you MUST listen to the music. Whether you are dancing solo or with someone you HAVE TO listen to the music. If you know the tune, then you know when to expect the sudden pause or change in tempo and your body will react accordingly. If the song is new, then you have to rely solely on your ears to hear the change and then your body must respond immediately to interpret what that change means for your dance.
Change is inevitable in our lives. We know it is coming, but we don’t always know when. Sometimes we can see the signs and we do our best to prepare. Occasionally, we see the signs and ignore them – hoping that the change will not come. Often, we are surprised by the sudden occurrences in our lives that can result in a major or minor shift in our lifestyle, thinking or behavior. Always, we understand that what we are experiencing is change, and we have no choice but to respond.
The one thing we can control is deciding how we will respond to the changes in our lives. We can’t respond if we don’t see what is going on. We can’t see what is going on unless we are tuned in to the music.
We have the ability to be quick on our feet and pivot in a new direction when the beat in our lives changes. What song is in your life playing right now? Are you ready to dance to a New Song?
