I’ve been dancing my whole life.
There’s nothing like the rush of nailing every step, every flick of a hand
in a new dance routine. I can lose myself in the movement of my body, in
the way the beat feels in my chest, the satisfaction I get from every
perfectly timed move. In that moment, everything else in life falls away.
When my body is in motion, I feel free.
I feel me.
But it’s all a secret from the rest of the world. It’s just for me.
My phone is precariously propped against the window frame which just
about gets the right angles for filming my routines. It doesn’t have to be
perfectly shot anyway, because I never show anyone.
I flop onto the bed and watch back the video. It took me all morning to
get the choreography down for SHINee’s track ‘Lucifer’, and I actually
look pretty good. Sure, dancing routines solo when they’re usually
performed by a group of five people is a totally different vibe, but I think I
did a good job of adapting the choreography. My arms could snap sharper,
and I spy one of my feet lagging a bit as the beat changes, but I style it out
enough that I don’t think anyone but me would even notice.
I’m a perfectionist. There’s always room for improvement.
But it’s good enough for now.
Inevitably, I’ll do a few more takes before I move on to a new routine in
a few days. That’s how it’s been since I was a little girl. Pick a song, dissect
the choreography until I can play it back in my head with my eyes closed,
and perform it to my phone camera. Sometimes I get creative and mix some
things up, like I did today with ‘Lucifer’.
But that’s it. It never goes further than that.
They never get posted anywhere, but I save them all to my Cloud,
which I’ve had to upgrade a few times over the years to get enough storage.
They’re like my diary, in a way. All the dances are tied to memories and
moments in my life, like how I learned a routine to ‘XO’ by Beyoncé
because Pen was playing it the day I went on my first date with Mason. Or
the routine for ‘Bye Bye’ by Rosa Cordova that I made Pen learn with me
the week we finished high school. It’s my life, and I don’t want to share
them with anyone else.
Once the video is stored safely, I delete it off my phone. That’s another
one locked down.
I should hurry up and get ready for dinner, but instead, I do my semiregular browse through the new job adverts on Entertainers International,
