Reposted from: 7 Things Everyone Should Know About Dancers We’re not graceful. Now, this is not completely true, but for the most part dancers aren’t graceful. We trip. We fall. We look like idiots when we try to freestyle in a genre we’re unfamiliar with. We may be able to kick some butt on choreographed steps, but when we’re not in the dance studio we can be like fish out of water: flopping around aimlessly and generally endangering the immediate public (don’t ask me how a fish can endanger you). I have been known to trip over nothing and fall into filing cabinets, so don’t expect a graceful swan and thou shalt not be disappointed. We come in all shapes and sizes. Contrary to what you may think, not all dancers look like Rockettes. You don’t need to have a rockin’ bod’ to be good at what you do. Yes, muscle is helpful, but that doesn’t mean that you can’t have a few curves! To be a good dancer you have to believe in yourself and what you do. You have to be confident, too. If you go up on stage thinking you suck, you’re going to suck. Physique doesn’t have as much to do with talent as you’d think, so don’t be surprised when the chubby girl can kick your butt in a dance-off
