Koki’s mom drove us there. We took a hip-hop lesson together. At first, I could tell that Kyd and Koki were very nervous. But then, they relaxed a little bit. Maybe it’s because the teacher was very kind. Koki learned a little bit faster than Kyd, because Koki had some experience in dancing before. He even could follow the teacher to do some movements. However, to Kyd, it’s a huge problem. He never learned anything about dancing before. It’s the first time. I could tell he was frustrated, I was too, when I was taking my first lesson, and I swear to god, I was even worse than he did today. Although, most of the time he couldn’t follow very well, he tried his best. And at the end of the class, he started to remember some of the movements, and so did Koki.
I know dancing isn’t very easy to do, especially when you just start learning it. However, it’s a process, after you go through all the difficulties in dancing, you’ll soon find the beauty of dancing, not only with your eyes, but also with your own bodies. I hope you guys can keep dancing no matter how hard it is for you guys now, but I promise, you’ll achieve more in the future.
