No, I don't sing or play an instrument.  I have danced for over 10 years and absolutely love it.  I took tap, jazz, and ballet.  Now, I'm taking a pop dance class and it's amazing.  I pick up the choreography very quickly.  I have been totally blind since birth.  I have had some challenges along the way but when you find the right people, things get easier.  I have also taken yoga for the past 9 years. I'm very active as well.  My goal is to eventually become a teacher if that's possible.  I know it's a long shot but I would love that.  When I took my dance classes, there was always assistants so I think if I were to teach, I could definitely have assistants since my sighted teachers did.  I wanted to try zumba but this pop dance is more for me.  I have spoken to a blind zumba instructor and she told me it was very hard keeping up with the new dances.  She loved teaching though.  She said jazzercise is actually easier than zumba.  My class is probably more of a jazzercise.  It's a mixture.

I usually get lots of email from the groups but it's one at a time.  I don't like where all of the messages come in just one email.  I look forward to getting into discussions with you.
