Broadway Dance Center (for Jackie)

as He could-a-been-a-contendah, i should-a-been-a-dancer...i mean, i am...i was...earlier in life...and now..i actually consider myself somewhat of a mover...my dance profe says i have a lot of 'swag' when i dance...maybe. but i don't think so. it's all a front. in real life i have no swag. just some pride. but in dance classrooms we're all effecting some sense of ourselves that lays dormant when we are expected to be sitting or walking, or even jogging, or yoga-ing...the beautiful thing about dancing is that it is like a fingerprint...have i said this before? i know in conversation i have...we could all be learning the same steps, but we are all going to express ourselves differently...we will look as unique as we actually are...the way we move is another type of fingerprint, no? body language? for starters? anyway, at broadway dance center there are professionals and amateurs, foreign students and old lady ballerinas, people like me and allegria who dance because it disconnects us from 'the world' and connects us with life. there is nothing better. but then, i have never been in love, just hungout in its greenroom a few times.
