This year my mood has been very heavy and quite tired. My business has suffered badly after long days of isolation due to covid 19. And my love has just ended after many years of sticking together. I was completely disoriented and depressed. 

I often lie curled up by myself in a room where I cry. My body seems to have no strength left, and I think...I can't forever be like this. I needed to get up. I walked to the beach to do exercise but after walking for 2 days I quit, because it does not give me the kind of motivation I need. It doesn’t help very much with my heartache.

One weekend, I didn’t want to walk because I found it boring. I rode a motorbike with my dog and I stopped in front of a group of people dancing to very funny music by the beach.

I ended up dancing with everyone and meeting this nice group. It was very busy and chaotic, lots of energy and noise. The atmosphere was so exciting. That night I had a great night's sleep. 

The next day I woke up feeling very comfortable. Since then, I have been Dork Dancing hard, joining everyday. I feel my feelings get better day-by-day, happier and more positive. My body is no longer tired and my waistline has decreased a lot. I am more confident when wearing body shirts. 

Today, it’s been nearly a month since joining Dork Dancing. I have new friends everywhere, which are lovely and happy. Although my English is very limited, we still sympathize and share with each other. When we meet, there is never a lack of laughter. Excited and happy. 

After this month of Dork Dancing, I have become a professional dancer of dork. It can be said that Dork Dancing is like a beautiful girl with the power to charm all young men. Every day I indulge in these funny dances. I feel my soul being caressed to ease, erasing hurt in my heart. And from here on, I have more friends, wonderful dancers from all over the world. They are lovely and cheerful.

Now that rainy season is here, I just hope it doesn't rain hard every afternoon so that we can come together for Dork Dancing. When immersed in music I forget all the pressure and sadness in life. I did not expect Dork Dancing to bring me such unexpected results. 

Before joining, I really didn't know the purpose of this group, or understand anything about Dork Dancing. I thought it was simply a fun game between active young people. I felt embarrassed dancing with them at first, with the eyes of many people on me. When I let go of that hesitation, I joined feeling really amazed and delighted.

I give my sincere thanks to Ethan. It was he who inspired us to be enthusiastic about Dork Dancing. He is a very dedicated person in rainy or sunny afternoons, he is always there to accompany us.
