Just a thought as I was browsing on the internet for belly dancing and horse related items to spend my gift cards on.
What role, if any, do you think performing (the desire to perform, the goal of performing and actually doing it) has affected your dancing? Do you feel you strive harder to be a better dancer because of the desire to perform? Do you think performing pushes your students to work harder at learning/practicing?
Do you think you would be at the level you are now if performing was out of the equation? Do you think that by choosing not to perform, or that in not having a desire to perform, that students are passively....perhaps not discouraged, but passively not encouraged to put in more effort into learning because 'what's the point'?
