mom was diagnosed with a debilitating hereditary disease she was told that she would slowly lose the use of her limbs entirely. It was hard for her to think of never walking again and we talked about all the things she wished she’d done while she could. One of those things was dancing. With the chances of my having the disease being quite high, I’d decided in that moment that I wanted to do all the things she wishedshe’d done. I began with group dance classes and really enjoyed dancing for several years. When I came to DC Dance Club for the first time a year ago, I truly fell in love with dancing. I decided that I wanted to improve faster and to do that, I committed to private lessons with Miro. In the past year, my love for dancing has grown insurmountably. My skill level has improved drastically and most importantly… my reason for dancing has changed. I started dancing for my mom, and now I dance for me. Thank you to Carol & Miro for changing my life in a way that you’ll probably never really know or understand.
Good morning! Yesterday marked the beginning of a new year in my life and I was thinking about the journey of growth I have gone through. I decided that the best way to start this day is to celebrate the people around me and let them know what I see. In that spirit I would like to say…Carol, you and Miro have taught me so much this past year. I have gained a tremendous amount of confidence in dance and my life because of the time spent learning with you. I have great respect for you and the work that you have chosen. It is inspiring to see people who care deeply about others and help them become stronger through dance. Thank you both for being your genuine selves
This year was very special to me. At the beginning of this year when I knew I had all the time in the world, I chose and learn and discover as much as I could cause I didn’t know when I would ever get an opportunity like this. So I spent the first part of this year travelling. I traveled to Morocco for almost a month and got spend a night under the stars in the Sahara desert. I hiked through parts of Hawaii and I spent a lot of time improving my surfing skills in Costa Rica. When I knew my travels were over and I had to come home, I didn’t want to stop learning and I really wanted to push my personal boundaries. I was never a good swimmer, so I took swimming lessons for the first time since I was 10. I thought boxing looked kinda cool, so I took up boxing. I have a small fear of heights, so I spent a lot of time on the climbing wall. And finally, I wanted to find a way to be more in the moment and having more fun, while letting any self-doubt or criticism just melt away. To my surprise, I found it in dance. Spending the last few months with Carol and Miro along with the folks at DC Dance Club, has taught me to let go and most importantly, focus on being me – which sounds so simple, but is very easy to forget sometimes. Carol did an amazing job of constantly reminding me and for that I am forever grateful
Hi we’re ML & Art Bader and we’re a couple of Country dancers trying to crash into the Ballroom scene. And thanks to Carol & Miro and group lessons at DC Dance, we’ve traded in our cowboy boots for ballroom shoes. We started dance lessons just after we got married 10 yrs ago. We wanted to be able to do something more than just hop around on the dance floor when the band played our favourite songs. Lessons went well and we were offered the chance to improve our basic skills by joining a performance dance team. What a blast! Our next dance goal was to learn some ballroom. Enter Carol & Miro. Our first attempt at learning Waltz wasn’t as successful as we were hoping it might be – and it’s still a challenge but Miro is a very patient teacher. Thank goodness he has a sense of humour! Our Cha and East Coast swing has improved and we’re working on Foxtrot and Rhumba. We recently joined The DC Dance “Hustle”:Dance Team that David is leading and choreographing for the Dec 15th show. By being part of this great group not only have we increased our dance skills but we’ve made new friendships. Dancing is one of the best gifts we’ve been given. We’re so happy we took those first few steps many years ago (even though we had no idea what we were doing). Don’t sit on the sidelines next year. Be part of the show. Take those lessons you’ve been putting off and throw caution to the wind. Give yourself a beautiful gift and learn to dance. Or continue to challenge yourself and become part of a performance team… Be the Nike commercial and “Just Do It”. See you on the dance floor.
Starts at 7:30pm Social dance only $15/pp, please see schedule for open evenings. Contact us for more info or call 403-861-6619.
