Me too!

I've thought about taking classes before, but I just don't want to embarass myself.

Ha! You've got no excuse then.

I just have no rythym, and I don't think it's something you can learn. Either you have it, or you don't.

I'd say that 7 years proves that it's not something you can learn, lol. My parent's tried to help with my coordination so badly, lol.

LOL! Yeah I think I just eventually gave up trying to learn. I'm deathly afraid that someday I'll get married and not dance at my own wedding cause I'm so horrible at it.

I threw myself into the work with all the ardour of my being and I became absorbed in it to the exclusion of everything else. My task was to get the girls in the trade to join the strike. For that purpose meetings, concerts, socials, and dances were organized. At these affairs it was not difficult to press upon the girls the need of making common cause with their striking brothers. I had to speak often and I became less and less disturbed when on the platform. My faith in the justice of the strike helped me to dramatize my talks and to carry conviction. Within a few weeks my work brought scores of girls into the ranks of the strikers.

I became alive once more. At the dances I was one of the most untiring and gayest. One evening a cousin of Sasha [Alexander Berkman], a young boy, took me aside. With a grave face, as if he were about to announce the death of a dear comrade, he whispered to me that it did not behoove an agitator to dance. Certainly not with such reckless abandon, anyway. It was undignified for one who was on the way to become a force in the anarchist movement. My frivolity would only hurt the Cause.

I grew furious at the impudent interference of the boy. I told him to mind his own business, I was tired of having the Cause constantly thrown into my face. I did not believe that a Cause which stood for a beautiful ideal, for anarchism, for release and freedom from conventions and prejudice, should demand the denial of life and joy. I insisted that our Cause could not expect me to became a nun and that the movement should not be turned into a cloister. If it meant that, I did not want it. "I want freedom, the right to self-expression, everybody's right to beautiful, radiant things." Anarchism meant that to me, and I would live it in spite of the whole world --- prisons, persecution, everything. Yes, even in spite of the condemnation of my own closest comrades I would live my beautiful ideal.

-Emma Goldman, Living My Life, Chapter 5

It doesn't matter if you dance well. It only matters that you move and have fun. Lessons aren't necessary to dance. A person doesn't have to study the Kama Sutra to enjoy making love...

Technique should never be a substitute for sincerity.

Sod what other people think.
