Woah Cha Cha.

I am getting out of my comfort zone and doing a Cha Cha for this upcoming Medal Ball event through work. I have been with Arthur Murray for a year now and have been in shock of what I have been able to accomplish this past year. The Cha Cha that I am going to perform is a fun Hollywood Legends theme. Every professional routine that I have done has been some sort of a smooth dance: Waltz, Tango and Fox Trot. I am finally able to push myself and try something new with one of my favorite latin dance, the Cha Cha (though Mambo is definitely second). Maybe I'll post a video of myself dancing. We shall see!

Voice.

I have started to sing again.

And not just in the shower or in the car, but to really focus on something I love doing.

I tend to reach this euphoric state through song. I don't realize I reach the end of the song till life wakes me up. Then I sing again.

Another song to reach that state of wellbeing.

I started taking vocal coaching lessons again at the end of February and have been doing it once a week since. I have been concentrating my effort in all types of musical theatre, mostly modern and contemporary pieces of art. It has been a very athletic way of an approach used with the voice. Engaging all my muscles to create energy anywhere and everywhere other than my vocal chords to produce the best and healthiest resonating sound possible. The results are amazing.

I have had the opportunity to work with a professional broadway singer that received his doctorate from Juilliard and was the lead in West Side Story with the national touring cast.

For him to say that this acting and singing is the right thing for me is quite possibly the best drive anyone could give me.

No time for testing the water, it is better to jump all in and hold your breath. What is there the lose?
