I wouldn’t say I am a dancer, though I did dance with my crew during my wedding reception.
Now that I piqued your curiosity, let me explain. While living in Japan, I decided to join a yosakoi dance group because I was fascinated by the sharpness and sleekness of the moves. That’s how I needed to work for my wife’s and guests’ delight during my wedding.
I won’t consider myself a dancer because I never really bother to memorise the moves. I think people who are more kinaesthetically inclined will leverage muscle memory to master dance steps, but I am not endowed with this talent. So, if you observe me carefully, you’ll notice that I’m not in sync with the other dancers. I tend to copy my dance mates’ moves, which results in me being slower by a beat.
But I guess people don’t really notice since I get bombarded with dance requests quite a bit. So, tomorrow, I’m going to dance to the tune of Peaches by Justine Bieber with some of my colleagues. Youth Day is celebrated in my country, so the teachers decide to put on a performance tomorrow. I hope everything goes well!
What’s your hidden talent?
