Myth #6

This is the final myth that most dancers have concerns about when deciding to go to college.

Myth #6: "A dance degree is pointless."

This myth honestly offended me, it was very rude. As a dancer you show commitment, that you are disciplined and performance driven with the ability to pick up new styles. Lee Buoy says "Dancers are some of the smartest people on the planet. We're problem solvers."  I know many people, myself being one of them, that would get offended if someone made fun of my major or being a dancer. This is rude because why are you questioning someone about doing something that they love for the rest of their lives. Do not believe this myth! Go out there and get your degree. Succeed in your dreams and show everyone what you are made of, that you are not afraid of being you.

 

Michael Telvin says "a dance degree isn't a limitation, but a launching pad." Do not let anyone tell you that your dreams are pointless.

If you have any other concerns about dancing in college please feel free to comment and I will answer. Next post will be examples of professional dancers who went to college or went professional out of high school. Remember to keep on dancing!
