What feeds you? We consistently give: as wives, as caregivers, as employees, as bosses, as daughters, as sisters, as friends. But what feeds you – so that you can continue to give? The adage of “carving out time for yourself”, is a tired track being played on repeat. But dammit, it’s so true! I’m hoping by sharing some of the ways I feed my senses, it might spark something for you. Maybe it’s revisiting an old passion or trying something you have never done before.
What feeds me? Dance Church. It is my everything. What the heck is Dance Church? It is a dance party, just like at the best clubs, but in athleisure instead of your hottest get-up. Bare feet instead of stilettos. Coffee after instead of shots before. Workout instead of hung over. Oh my gosh, it’s a my dream come true. Founded by Kate Wallich, Dance Church happens every Sunday morning and Tuesday night. It is a 90 minute dance workout, however it’s not choreographed. Kate leads the class and cues movements, but so general in nature that you can move however you please. There is every type of person represented and that is what makes it so awesome! The room at Velocity Dance is dimly lit and packed, so you have to like being in close proximity to others while sweating. The playlists are out of this world {Think RiRi, Bey, Drake, Bieber,}. I walk out of there on a high every time. In my 20’s, there was nothing better than dancing into the wee hours of the morning. Dance Church gives me everything I loved: music, movement, and infectious energy.
Would you give Dance Church a try?? Read the personal account of a first timer.
PS: The mirrors are covered, there is no front, and no one is watching you! And church has nothing to do with it.
