My Type of Relaxation


I lead a busy life for the most part. I have always enjoyed being a productive individual who is multi-tasking and has little time to worry about herself. However, I do admit of wanting to take a break every once in a while to breathe.
By allowing myself this time I take time into doing an activity I enjoy like taking a nap, being creative by doing crafts or sometimes coming up with dances and recently a routine. 
Even though, I consider what I'm doing to be fun it is still doing something productive yet enjoyable. No matter how hard I try to just relax I find relaxation in creating a dance that will fulfill my satisfaction and am proud of something I created that is fun and brings joy to others when they see the routine.
According to online site The Inspired Classroom in the article “4 Positive Effects of Dance and Movement for K-12 Students” by Elizabeth Peterson written on May 4, 2012 they say the benefits are: being physically fit, creating an outlet, ability to connect with classmates and builds confidence. Elizabeth Peterson writes, Performing a dance in front of other people, especially when you are new to dance, is a huge risk, and challenging students to take those kinds of risks can build confidence for years to come.
I agree with Elizabeth Peterson because the first time you perform in front of an audience you get intimidated but once you do perform and everything goes well you become more confident in yourself and begin to build confidence. However, if it doesn’t go too well it motivates me to be better next time I perform. I get an extreme satisfaction from dancing and performing and knowing I created a dance for all to enjoy is even greater. I may not be the best dancer in the world but that doesn’t bother me. After all we can’t all be talented in every department!http://theinspiredclassroom.com/2012/05/4-positive-effects-of-dance-and-movement-for-k-12-students/
