The new year is here, and that means it\u2019s time for New Year’s resolutions, promises, and challenges to sweep across the world, and then be promptly forgotten by next month. At Fred Astaire Dance Studios, we believe in setting realistic, achievable goals that help you better yourself. To this end, we\u2019ve compiled a short list of dance resolutions for you to try out in the New Year!<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Try a new dance style!<\/span><\/h2>\n

Whether you are a fitness dance enthusiast coming off a history of hardcore Zumba classes, a new student just getting comfortable with the ballroom basics, or an experienced ballroom dance veteran with years of competition under your belt, there\u2019s no better way to start the year off right than trying something new! Those salsa classes you\u2019ve been unsure of? Sign up and give it a try! Did you see something cool online that inspired you? Ask your teacher about it! Even if the novelty fades quickly, the experience and perspective you can gain from stepping outside your comfort zone cannot be understated!<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Meet new dance partner(s)!<\/span><\/h2>\n

In the spirit of new beginnings, connections, and ventures, try expanding your horizons by dancing with a new partner! Attending a social dance party at Fred Astaire Dance Studios is the perfect opportunity: Look for an acquaintance or new face, and ask if they\u2019d like to give it a try! You just might find a new friend, partner, teacher, or student in that new face you extend a welcome arm to. Grow your dance family in 2022!<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Take part in a performance or competition!<\/span><\/h2>\n

While we believe that dance is a worthwhile activity even when alone, it can become truly magical when you perform for an audience! The pressure of performance and competition drives dancers to perform at their peak, and helps the most dedicated find purpose and motivation through many hours of hard work and practice. Even if you are a new or shy dancer, it can be a great way to push yourself out of your comfort zone and truly experience the visceral experience\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Start a dance journal!<\/span><\/h2>\n

If you\u2019re already a practiced, experienced dancer, try starting a dance journal! You can document things like progress and notes you\u2019ve made during lessons, reflections on your current routines and steps, and even fun notes and reminders you get from other dancers about new steps to try or songs to check out! You\u2019ll be amazed at the virtues of journaling your dance journey, and eventually you\u2019ll have a treasured record of your growth as a dancer.<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Hopefully, we\u2019ve given you some ideas and inspiration to seize the new year and start dancing! We can\u2019t wait to continue dancing with you in 2022, so make sure to schedule your lessons, eat well and take care of yourself, and come ready to make the world a more beautiful place!<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
