Croccers posted:Learn how to not be embarrassed taking a dance class. You are correct about your point, but also consider how cruel people are about stuff like not being able to dance. I'm not making an excuse, I'm pointing out a very real problem, and the reason a lot of people don't try new things. Being inexperienced isn't seen as a fact, it's a flaw. A moral failing. The lie of "talent" has led to a really hosed up social structure surrounding skill based activities. You're supposed to just Do It Right The First Time. People tell me I'm "talented" for being able to draw. No, I'm not, I've spent more hours of my life than I care to think about training, I've made more "bad" art in 15 years than most people make in their entire lives. It's worse for a skill "everyone knows". I guess what I'm saying is: I feel empathy for people scared to try a new skill, but also Croccers is right, go learn the skill anyway.

Actually, the best advice I've ever gotten about dancing is that the only difference between a good and bad dancer is that the good one believes they're good. It helped me a lot, though I'm hardly going to win a contest.
