Me dancing before I left

I'm working really hard trying to learn spanish & flamenco and still sometimes I feel like I haven't improved at all. Sometimes I even feel like I'm worse than before I left at both of them. I'm not depressed or anything, I know to keep going forward - work hard and just trust that it's absorbing - but recently I've had these thoughts and sometimes I just feel slow & inadequate. So, when a video of a dance I did back in November showed up a few days ago on facebook, it couldn't have been better timing. The video is fantastic, our class performed beautifully, and it reminded me that I came to Spain with some proficiency and I can only go up (right?!) Also, it reminded me how much fun dancing is - it was almost as much fun to watch!
Anyways, I want to share the video and here it is:

  1. I couldn't tell which dancer was u at first, but then immediately new which one you were just by the way u hold yourself with mucho gusto, and Moxie! You're a wonderful dancer steenie, you just don't have your U.S. team reminding you anymore. A very wise t.v show called yo gabba gabba once sang" Don't stop, don't give up". So ahead of their time I say. Just don't go looking for any compliments on your spanish from a lil' sister we will call Berity, She still says she's better than u. heheheh We miss u everyday. BIg besitos, MUAH!!! Love nene, not ben...
