In Jilisti, there is a variety of classes from hip hop to modern to jazz. My dance teacher influenced me to love dance and she has assisted me to improve. I wouldn't be as good in dancing as I am today if my dance teacher wasn’t there to guide me. I enjoy helping other dancers in my class who are new to Jilisti by helping them learn dance moves and being friendly to them. I've done dancing for five years and my dedication has helped me become better. Dancing has given me patience and a better memory, which will help me in college. Dance has benefited me because it's a great physical sport. There are many people in my Jilisti class I have learned many social skills. Social skills help me in job interviews, making friends, and many other things in life. One day I hope to become a professional dance teacher and pass my knowledge of dancing to the next generation of dancers.
