And just in case you don't read it, I'll explain: I am new at dance, so I have to work through a "gap," a gap where my skill and technique don't match what I know is good dance. But the thing about the gap is that there's no way to get around it. I have to work through it, and that's why I made dance posts a part of this blog. So that I would have accountability to choreograph. Because if I don't practice, I won't improve.
I wrote this post while watching a movie, so no promises on the grammar. or continuity.
