Be Early!

We dancers admit to being late for most things. There is a perfectionist pesty friend inside of us who likes to tag along most days. This causes us to spend too much time on tasks that need to be completed faster. Thus, we are late. Late for class, late for rehearsal, even late leaving the dressing room at the end of the night.

Today's note is BE EARLY! Give yourself enough time each day to show up for dance at least 15 minutes before you need to be there. That gives you 5 minutes to get settled, adjust your dancewear, go to the restroom-5 minutes to roll down and give yourself a body check to see "where you are" and 5 minutes to JUST BE EARLY.

If you create a consistent habit of being early you will always feel that much more prepared and your friends and colleagues will gain respect for you when they see that you are always there when they walk in the door.

BE EARLY!
