How long did you stay at the beginner level when you started dancing?
How long did you stay at the beginner level when you started dancing?
This person is starting to feel discouraged because they believe that they are learning too slowly.
They have been dancing for 1 year.
I want to start out by saying that Skill Level in Social Dancing is relative. Meaning you could be the best dancer at your school/socials/city/state. But as we all know, just take one look on Social Media, and you will see amazing dancers from all around the world. Please remember, Comparison is the Thief of Joy. Please compare yourself first and foremost to yourself in the past, not to others.
But I do believe as we dance longer, I think we naturally mellow out about levels. There is no end to being a beginner. You should always feel like you can continue to learn. I ask all my guest on the podcast, what does it take to go from Intermediate to Advanced Dancer. And guess what they tell me. Focus on the Basics.
The dancers who start thinking they're advanced are the ones who stop growing,
The Dancers who believe that being known in their local scene means they're objectively good.
Also do know and remember there is no clear-cut consensus on what is a beginner/intermediate/advanced. What is an Advanced Dancer in one city, could be intermediate in another city.
Dancing isn't about being the best dancer, it's about being the best version of yourself
Lastly here are some quick tips if you want to improve Faster:
1. Whatever Dance style you dance, Listen to that music Genre Often. Like all the time, as much as possible. Becoming accustomed to the music genre will make you a better dancer. This is easier to do if you actually enjoy the music.
2. Practice, practice, practice. As amazing as your teacher maybe it’s your hours on the dance floor that will help you improve. Practice at the home, solo, or with a partner. Put in the work!
