Tap Dancing
Hi I have a quesiton for all of you.
I'm 14 a gurl and for 8 years of my life (sence I was 5) I have been dancing. Jazz, Tap, Ballet all of it. I quit each one until I had Tap left. I will be honest I was one of the best dancers in each class I was in But I quit because I couldn't take my mothers constant complaining about the money and the time it took her to take me there and wait. I finaly gave in to her the begining of this year and I quit Tap also. after I quit everything reminded me of tap. I cried myself to sleep I missed it that much. I have made up my mind to go back when dance starts again but I having doubts that I won't be excepted by all the other dancers. and my mom is starting her complaining already and I haven't even found my tap shoes yet. I was wondering what all of you think?
P.S. I was in the highest class you could go (Advanced 2) so I was really good but I really am afraid that I can't take what all are going to say.

im sure you can get right back up there if you were that good. Im sure your mom will understand if you confront her and tell her that you really love dancing and how you cried yourself to sleep every night. If she doesnt really get it, then confront your tap teacher and tell him/her your situation. Maybe they can reduce the price just for you or just do something about it. Maybe the other dancers wont except you but if they dont than they are all just full of themselves....I'll beat them up..lol. But seriously, i dont think they'll reject you but if they do maybe confront the teacher again and tell him/her about it. Im sure he'll understand!
Thanks!

i was in tap for the same amount of time but i'm 16 and i quite when i was 14 i quite because of a simular reason but all i can say is probably forget about it cuz even just a year can put you really far behind other then that i dont thinkg the other danser will have a problems and if they do tell them to shuv it
lol

why would they really have anything to say? you had a legitimate reason for dropping tap.( financial reasons and the stress from your mom complaining) you obviously have a passion for tap and they will see that and accept you no matter what

i kno what you mean - my parents had the same problem with gymnastics because it's an expensive sport and you train like 23 hours a week, and i also kno what you mean bout going back to it bcuz i went back to gymnastics after a knee surgery and i felt kind of out of place...when you go back, just make sure that ppl no you are doing it for yourself and not to impress neone else or to be the best...also, i don't kno much about tap dancing, but if you are frustrated at first, don't give up! give yourself time, and it will most likely get back to the way you remember it!

Maybe if you truely love dance you could somehow bike to the classes and get a job babysitting or something. Maybe then she'll shut up.
