Career Development Plan - Passion For Dance

Hi,
My name is alythia defrance and i am 15 years old. I have never really had much professional experience in any form of dance although my passion is hip hop/ street dance, i have grown a love for ballet, jazz, everything over the past year! i just cant picture my life without dance, it is so important to me and gets me through some pretty tough times. i really want to be a dancer when i leave school and i am doing everything possible to make my dream come true, but i am scared of what i am up against. some poeple who have been dancing for their whole life in an actual studio, with real teachers, who are so privaleged, im not sure i will be good enough. But i am staying positive :) thankyou for this website it has been a temendous help :D
sincerely,
alythia

Hello Alythia,

Thank you for contacting me, it is a pleasure to hear from you.

I can give you the information that you need to progress to the next level. The secret to success is mental discipline as well as physical ability. Along with the three physical secrets, the Seven Secrets, on the 'Seven Secrets of Ballet' page, will give you the key answers of how to thrive in the dance world.

It is encouraging to hear your passion for dance. Your love and enthusiasm is very valuable in dancers, as it is something that comes from within and can never be taught. To have drive and determination is a worthy aspect for all aspiring dancers.

I understand everything you are saying and it is excellent that you are learning to stay positive. It is easy to let your worries or doubts hold you back, but you need to acknowledge these fears and take action to resolve them.

It is true that the competition in the dance world is very tough, as you rightly say, many dancers have had the advantage of training at vocational dance schools.

Now that you are aware of this challenge and if you are determined to become a professional dancer, then you need to build up a realistic plan to how you can make this happen. Do you family support your dream too? Have you got a teacher that believes in your potential? Is there a school you can train more seriously at?

These are some of the questions you need to ask yourself to make your dreams come true. It is crucial to follow the right steps if you want to become a professional dancer. If you are determined to fulfill your dreams in ballet, then follow the personal development plan which are the gradual stages to becoming a professional dancer.

Always remember your true passion for dance. It is very special.

Stay in touch.

Best Wishes,

Odette
