JAXEN TAN LIFE LESSONS
The road to becoming a great dancer is never straight. The textbook definition of “straight” is something that has no bends, angles or curves. Can we apply the same definition to dance? Absolutely not. There are many angles to look at and many roads with diversions here and there. Without the proper guidance and foresight, it is very hard to achieve the kinds of level of dance that one can call good; much less great. I started at a time when resources were scarce and technology was still at a young age. It took me a great deal longer then to learn than if I were to start learning now. Throughout my journey, there has been many lessons learned the hard way which can now be easily simplified. That is the lesson that you can now learn easily.
