Dejavu

A great stress reliever aside from alcohol is dance, well, to me it is. These days, aside from dancing and futsal, I don’t do much other type of exercise or sports related activity. With work piling up and deadline getting near, I start to feel the pressure of it all, not that it’s bad, I like it actually as it only means that I’ve to be kept on my toes and be on a constant move. It’s better that way than sitting at home doing nothing, right?

The Salsa Dancers at the ADP Ball

Sometimes, too much of these type of pressure isn’t good too. I find that the only way I could really let go and release all these pent up stress is through dancing. Unlike all the other sports where I have to think and plan to win, in salsa, I don’t have to, just invite a girl onto the dance floor and just dance away. Unlike futsal, I don’t get tired easily in dancing too, could dance all night long if the club remain open and there are dance partners around.

Dancing the Night Away

On Friday, that’s basically what I did, headed to Dejavu after HELP’s ADP Annual ball, I practically danced the night away. It’s been a month or so since I last step into a salsa club and I just had to go. Initially, the plan was to dance at the ADP ball but due to some changes, that never came up. That little ‘hurdle’ didn’t stop me of course. After the dinner, it was off to Dejavu for a good night of dancing.

Salsa, Tango, Cha Cha... it's all good

It felt like home stepping into a club with Salsa music playing away and before long, I place my gears aside with friends and head off to the dance floor to dance! My repertoire of moves can’t even be called a repertoire cause I only know so much. I know I suck at dancing but heck, it never bothered me, I don’t have to think about what moves to execute and all. It was just dance, you can say it’s pure freedom, all my troubles just left me. All that was there was just the music entering into my senses and my legs moving away by itself, my hands guiding the lady into spins and dips by itself. No need to think. Simple. That’s all it is. Went home a happier person I was.

(As usual, no photos of me dancing as no one knows how to use my camera. LOL. Photos frm the night can be viewed here. )
