Dance
I've always loved dance and my world basically revolves around it. I dance at my studio that I've been at for about 7 years and I'm on my high school drill team. I'm now a senior in high school and my drill coach has made my love of dance a pain in the ass. She is constantly ridiculing us and telling us how bad we are! And, because of her I've not only dread going to drill practice but dancing at my studio as well. :/
My mom thinks that I'm using my coach being a bitch for an excuse on why I want to quit. Do you think that one person can ruin the thing you love for you? Or is it just me not wanting to dance anymore?

Want to answer more questions in the Hobbies category?
Maybe give some free advice about: Theater?
Okay, well this is easy for me because I love dance too. I am on the Senior Team 2 squad at my studio and I'm only in Middle School. If you really love dance, you should take the ridiculing as a challenge. Practice makes perfect, and if you make the coach have absolutely nothing to complain about...and you are golden!! I hope my advice works for you and you follow through, because I know thinking about it is easy...but actually doing it is hard. Take pride in your talent, and have fun!

well i dont know the entire situation but i think that maybe you just loved to dance for a past time or a hobby and your drill coach is teaching you this and being this hard on you because she thinks you want this for a profession, and maybe you do. but i think you need to decide if you want to dance for the rest of your life and if you do then stick through it and work your ass off. but if you just want it as a hooby, then explain your mom this. tell her "mom, i do love to dance but i dont want all this pressure that the coach is giving us becuase its not what i want to do for the rest of my life. hopefully she will see that you are not just saying your coach is being a bitch for an excuse to quit. parents can be difficult sometimes. i hope my long answer helped lol. good luck.

it could be both. Your coach is making it hard on you and making you stressed out! she ruins your day...it could be a possibilty of both. one person does have the power of making you dread doing something you love...the only i can say is...try not to let it bother you, when you go to dance...put your drill coach behind you and see how you feel, maybe you are sick of dance and you've done it for a really long time but it sounds to me that if you were ever going to get sick of dance then you would have by now...in my opinion, it's just your drill coach.

its crazy how alike i am in this situation. i used to LOOOVE soccer.. now i hate it cuz of my coach.. my parents are letting me quit my team and find a new one.. and when i quit my team.. they are gonna chew my coach out..
i might suggest finding a new studio. or just hang in there.. besides u are a senior, so its your last year..
^^ let me know if i helped!

Yes, one person can ruin the thing you love. I love to sing but some of the people that teach me are horrible to me...they make me think i can never sing something and such. they almost completely ruined it for me but then i found a teacher that knows i have talent. don't quit the team half way through the year, you WILL regret it. i've quit a lot of things and everytime i do i let a bit of myself go too. just get through it and later after high school, you might find a better place to dance and fall in love with it all over again. <3

no i definitley think that it IS your dance coach. i think if you want to quit b/c of her you should...but since you know you love to dance try to find another studio you can join so you can keep doing what you love!!:D

I think the people make an effect on your choices. Because, if you were around a whole lot of people the love dance and make it so much fun then you want to dance but if your around a person with negative comebacks then you just don't want to put up with it and I understand. Don't let that teacher affect your choice of dancing or not cause when you graduate and goto college she wont be there.
* i hope i helped and answered your question

its that one person and i would suggest mabye trying to get a new coach. ONe person can ruin your dream FOREVER. yes, thats what happened to me but just stick through it, I am a dancer to on a team and no i HATE my teacher but then i realize that you cant always get what you want and if you love what you do then you have to stick with it or you are going to be a quiter because of one stupid person,

Its maybe a little bit of both. When you love doing something from the time you were young and you like doing it, and you have probably been complimented all your life when doing it, you may not take kindly to any form of criticism. That said, if the coach is being mean for no good reason or making the criticism a personal attack then there is no reason why anyone would like it. If you can, go to her office alone and explain how dance is so important to you and find out what she envisions for it and if it can match up with yours. She'll probably start acting nicer if she sees that you are really serious about it. If not, then I'd maybe consider quitting as well.
Good luck and keep me posted.

well i dont really know because like if you love to dance don't stop doing it just because one person thinks you are bad... I know I wouldn't stop because that one person thinks I am bad.. It all depends on what you think and what you LOVE to do...

both i think one person can ruin it for you i know well i swim had had on a competitive swim team since i was like 5 or 6 and like i did not get back into it this summer so it just sliped away and i was getting tired of it and you can take a brake from what you love cus i loved swimming but don't do what i did if you take a brake YOU HAVE TO FORCE YOURSELF BACK INTO IT. I did dance 2 but i just droped everything this year. so don't let that lady ruin it for ya just have fun work on what she sais to work on but still remeber it is not woth losing the love of it to just be her perfect little star. hope i helped

i think that one person cridisizing someone like that can make them not want to do the thing that they love. i used to love to sing, but my mom started in on me like that and i quit so now when my mom asks me to sing for people i wont do it because everytime i do she is just a bitch about it. so yes i think that one person puting your spirts down about dancing in your case can make you want to quit.
hope i helped! :D

i have the same problem. i`m on a competitive baton twirling team. i used to love it. && i`d look forward to going to practices && competition. but our coach decided that she wants to start drama with everyone. it`s all he said she stuff. && it`s deff. tearing our team apart. we have thought about starting a new team. but idn. it`s deff. not the fact you don`t want to dance. same with me about twirling. i hate to go && hear our coach bring us down. she is supposed to support us. not work against us. <33
