You know how it is, the outside world⌠they donât really know how many sacrifices we make for this thing. We work so hard, (most of us) donât even make money or try impress anyone.. but just to have that feeling of those stage lights flashing upon your skin, getting your best angles, the crowd feelin what youâre doing and you see/hear everyones âoooooooOoâ faces because what of what they just saw, or the feeling when you get off stage⌠that feeling of uttermost happiness and sometimes tears, the good tears because you know your team  family did amazing and youâre so proud of each and everyone. They donât know the countless hours we put in, the no sleep we get, the hours on end rehearsals outside in parking structures or the musty-ness of the studio because everyoneâs sweating. They donât know how much pride we take upon each other and our team not because we want to show everyone up, but because we want to be able to show and prove to ourselves how successful we can be with our goals. How we all âhandle that shit.â Because we definitely do. There arenât enough hours in the day, but somehow weâll manage to squeeze hours just to hang out outside of rehearsal because these people you dance with become your family. It gets to the point where youâre so annoyed of them, but you wouldnât have it any other way. Only dancers understand dancers. And the reason why is just that. Weâve built a strong community, much more than just little competitions here and there, but weâve gone global. Weâve changed the world forever. People who started with nothing, gained everything, and thatâs pride, hard work, perseverance, strength, and most of all, passion. And that passion will forever only be something that only us dancers will understand with us dancers.
