I have danced since I was 4. After a couple years, I stopped and came back to it when i was 11. I instantly fell in love with it again. It’s been about 4 years since then and I don’t know what to do. Dance has slowly but surely taken up my entire life. It has stressed me out until I was in tears, It has taken a huge chunk of money from my parents, and it has negatively affected my grades because of the late practices and many hours. Many people are leaving the competition team (which I am currently in) because of numerous reasons, but mostly because they just don’t have enough passion for dance. I have always struggled with trying to balance dance and my art ever since I started to do dance again, and now I have absolutely no time to do what has always come natural to me. Dance has never been a current thing in my life until now, and I don’t really think that I will do it professionally. I am considering just quitting altogether and goin back to my artwork, (which is what career path I want to go down) What do you guys think? Also you can ask questions too. I just really need help with this.
