Hello people who read my blog!
Today I will talk about my preferred hobbie. Dancing

I started practicing dance from an early age, at 7, in a ballet workshop at school. At that time I did not have much elongation and I was not outstanding, so after two years I was bored of the workshop and I thought the teacher was too strict, so I left classes.
In 5th grade, I took modern dance curse in school, which was very demanding but not so strictest such as ballet, and although I was not the best dancer of the group I was 3 years striving there.
But it was in 2003 when I began dancing as a professional, when I entered to Valero dance studio. At first I took a few Jazz Style classes, but over the years I was getting excited more and more with dance and when I was in the 11th grade in school I had improved a lot and I was invited to be part of the Valero company, so I had to practice and rehearse almost every day.

To be a dancer you have to have:
- good elongation in your legs.
- good memory
- interpretation
- musicality
- good hips rotation
- fluid movements.

But in dance doesen't matter if you don't have the technique or skills, because dance is 99% effort and 1% talent.

I learned a lot, but the most important is that I realized that to achieve what you want, there is hard work to do and suffer if is necessary (it pained me a lot improve my elongation), I learned to be responsible, punctual and constant, because ballet teachers are very strict, I learned to respect my teachers and classmates, I made very good friends and learned to overcome the shame of ridicule.
I think all this helped me to be the person that i`m now, but specially to trust my self.

That all i hope you liked it!

Bye

Vacations !!!

Hi all
Today I will tell a little about my last vacation and what I would like to do in the coming.

Well, the holiday 2009 was incredible because I went to many new and interesting places .

First I went camping with my boyfriend to south of Chile to a beautiful place called "Seven Cups”, there I enjoyed the beautiful nature and landscape where one can visit a national park, where are the 7 waterfalls Clarillo River. Was a beautiful and educational experience because I learned a little more about of how to survive when you don’t have the amenities to which one is accustomed.

Then I went to a couple of beaches located on the central coast, Maitencillo and Guaylandia, the second going from a very young age so I reacquainted with many childhood friends

In February, I went with colleagues from the university to Florianópilis, Brazil. There we stayed at the house of a colleague who lived there before coming to study in Chile so we met his family and friends and she always had a plan and knew where to go and what we needed to know.
In Brazil, we traveled to Camboriu, a nearby town, and stayed there for 3 days, staying with friends of my companion. Was a great experience.
What I remember most of Brasil is the Carnival, and although not as big as the Rio Carnival is great fun because all men are on the street dressed as women (whether or not gays) to dance and have a excellent time.

In the summer of 2009 I spent a lot of money and I had incredible, I think it's very difficult to match so I don’t think out of chile in 2010, but there are many places in my country that I don’t know and I'd love to know such as Torres del Paine.
I am told that is a very beautiful place but I think it is expensive and don´t know where I could host.

Another place I'd like to know is San Pedro de Atacama because according to comments is a very mystical place.

I also like to return to the Elqui Valley, a place where I went when I was young so I could not appreciate the most.
I will probably go like every year to Guaylandia central coast beach, which is a delightful place where is a family atmosphere.

Well thats all, I hope year ends soon and that you like it.
Bye
