Tell her that you really love dance, but realize it's conflicting with your schoolwork. Tell her that you would like to come up with some solution to this problem, and that you'd like her help. If you phrase it like this, she'll know you are looking at the situation in a mature, responsible way, and will trust you to make your own decisions about this topic.
Obviously, something has to be cut back. Maybe you can cut down the time you spend each day surfing the internet? Is there anything else you do after school that is taking up all your time? You could try plotting out the time each day you spend doing certain things. Most people have relatively mundane periods of time that they waste for no particular reason. Maybe for you this is, say, commuting to dance classes. To make up for this you could try doing homework in the subway/car.
Don't stress too much. Schools go through periods that I like to call crunch time, because everything is due then. Maybe instead of quitting dance, you can talk to your dance teachers and tell them that certain times of the year you'd like to have less lessons, but you'd like to make it up by taking more classes during different times of the year.

Not everyone has chance to do what they love. You are lucky to find something you enjoy doing it. Don't let go.
I know it's hard to keep up with school, work, friends, social life and everything else, but arn't the greatest goal of life is to find somethihng you love to do?
raebabyyyy answered Tuesday January 29 2008, 7:18 pm: Honestly, no one can really answer this except you. I know what it feels like to be just swamped with all this work to do! I have to balance school, hours at work, a social life, a family life, and a love life, and on top of that I have a driver's ed class that I have to do, but I keep my passion for art with me, always. If you truly feel like this work is just getting too big to handle, then you need to realize if dancing is something that you're truly passionate about or if it's just another phase that you're going through. Think about it and you'll come up with a solution that's right for you. [ raebabyyyy's advice column | Ask raebabyyyy A Question ]

I know you don't have the time right now to get your work done and dance. Just try your best to make time. Best of luck [ masterclinic's advice column | Ask masterclinic A Question ]
