Why do I do it? Why do I keep on doing it? I have been teaching for about 6 years now and you would think I'd learn....learn what? Learn not to keep on breaking my back to find and create opportunities for the young dancers within my community. Harsh? I used to think so, but now my attitude has changed massively and it just doesn't seem worth it any more. Our changing youth culture is immense and kids just don't seem to appreciate anything any more. The greatest sense of satisfaction in creating opportunities for children to perform used to be the evident enjoyment in their faces and the sense of satisfaction they openly spoke of after every rehearsal and the event itself. But I see this less and less now! I don't know why many kids today even bother turning up to their weekly dance class as the look on their face is enough to scare any one away, particularly the teacher! Thank God for the odd exception, other wise I might as well go and dig my grave right now!
