This is a special weekend series ‘Student Voices’ where I share my conversations with the members of the Iana Dance Club about life, dance and training. Some of participants are belly dance beginners, some are professionals, but all of us have one thing in common: we all remain being students of dance. :)Enjoy this inspiring conversation with Lilia where she shares her belly dance transformations with us:"I’m battling perfectionism constantly.""In my mind ‘professional’ means ‘perfect’ which is not true.""I have several performances and competitions that I skipped because I though I wasn’t ready, that they would not be perfect. It’s a constant battle.""Sometimes when you want it to be perfect, you do nothing, because you are afraid it won’t be perfect.""I don’t even know what is ‘perfect’. That’s the irony of it.""Now I’m trying to practice smarter rather than harder.""Belly dance gives the freedom to express my feelings. It gives me storytelling techniques with the body." _LiliaShow Notes to this episode:Find information on how you can support Ukraine and Ukrainian belly dancers HERE.Check Lilia’s community page at the Iana Dance Club website.
