At a recent holiday event, I met an
interesting, motivated new Executive of the company I was visiting. Our conversation
quickly turned to ballroom dance, as I introduced myself and this gentleman
shared that his wife has always wanted to dance! By the end of our lively
conversation, he had purchased a gift certificate for a package of dance
lessons for his wife as a Christmas gift.
This Executive is an avid skydiver,
triathlete, and very successful business leader. However, he shared his fear of
the dance floor. I was very proud of him and excited to hear him announce, “I
am just going to go for it!” I suppose for him, it is no different than
jumping out of a plane in a free fall to the earth. More, what could be more
loving than setting aside one’s own trepidation in order to make a wife’s dream
come true!
This experience turned my thoughts
to the true gift of ballroom dance.
Each of us finds a life path leading to the dance floor for a variety of
personal reasons. However, once we all arrive, dance bestows upon each of us
glorious gifts that enrich our lives.
Ballroom dance teaches us to be
better partners, leaders and followers - literally and figuratively. It
improves our bodies, challenges our minds, and brings light to our spirits.
Ballroom dance is an exciting path to personal growth.
This holiday season, give the gift of dance and watch the
ones you love grow!
