10 LIFE struggles only dancers will understand

TEN LIFE STRUGGLES ONLY DANCERS UNDERSTAND 

For this list, I asked dancers about some struggles we face. Heres what they had to say: 

1) No free time:
When there's barely even enough time to complete school work, go to events, or to hang out with friends (apart from dance friends).

2) Flexibility problems:
Being so flexible one day but the next day you can't even walk.
- or - having arthritis because you're so flexible.

3) Hair issues:
This one is a struggle that mostly everyone goes through! (Especially to all the curly hair girls out there- I feel your pain)

4) Eating healthy:
When your dance teacher says that we're not allowed to eat junk food, but you still end up eating the most unhealthy junk food there is. 

5) Music:
Your music playlist is full of your dance songs.
-or- you hear a song you've had choreography to.

6) Public dancing:
When you're at parties and people tell you to dance because you're a "dancer".

7) Being super hungry:
We all know, after rehersals we run home and open our fridge. Then we eat- A LOT. Which leads into the next problem-

8) Being super thirsty:
We all have those days when we forget our water at home, then in class the struggle begins.

9)  Stereotypes:
To be fair- I think that there are stereotypes for everything. There are times when nobody likes them, than there are times when they can be rather funny or interesting.


10) And of course the blog:
Its amazing to be working on this, but it can sometimes be a struggle to post on the right day, or to make sure we don't repeat ourselves and that the topics we cover will be interesting. It can sometimes be a little difficult to be unique, because there are so many basic points that have so much to talk about, yet we don't want to mention the same thing as everyone else.
