i go to a really cool dance school, but i don't have much friends. i tried talking to them, but the convertsation doesn't last long and they leave. so i'm usually left alone. i also start crying during dance cuz my past would suddenly present themselves again. i really like dance, but what should i do?

NO, don't! If you truly love dancing then you have to stick to it. You're not there for them, your there to learn. I don't have to but I survived. They are the ones who talks to me now. The thing is, do your best and when your improving they will talk to you even if you don't. Don't cry it's not your fault and it's their lost. Having no friends has an advantage, you will be more focus to your teacher and to your love for dancing. Just try to loOK at the good sides of it, ok. Hope I helped you.

I am in dance and i don't really have a lot of friends. I think i have like 3 friends out of like 30 people. But that was because i switched studios and i didn't know anyone. That class i met them was a summer class. At our studio there is like no time for socialization they push us. I think that you should just talk to people and get to know them. That's what i did or if i didn't know how to do something in the dance i would just ask someone by me and they would help me then we just became friends. Hope you make some friends. If you like to dance why would you quit.

I really think you need to address what you say is your past that keeps coming up and is serious enough to upset you! Did it happen at dance class? Were you physically injured? I know you have emotional injuries or you wouldn't be crying and getting upset. The other girls are probably a little shy to interact with you if you are upset. They are just kids too and don't know how to handle those kinds of situations. Don't stop dance if you truly love it. You may need to change studios if the "past" happened where you dance now. Talk to your teacher or a counselor or your parents about this problem. The problem isn't dance. It is just where this problem keeps showing up! Best wishes and if I can help contact me.

If you truly LOVE dancing then most defiantly stick with it! never stop doing something you enjoy and love because of other people. its a dance class anyways, not social hour. if you want to take it as a career then i say stay. if you are not serious about it but love to dance just find a new dance class! but really please, stick with it because if just stop you can never go back. and if you do want to take this as a career choice as many dancer do, then i bet you will become a better more serious dancer than the others who are chatting up a storm. who knows, you could become a famous dancer in New York and they might end up working at a Hot Dog stand ! :) good luck!

I you love dancing, then you shouldn't quit just because you aren't making friends. In the end, dancing makes you happy, with or without other people by your side.
If making friends is something you want though, try a diffferent dance studio, or try a different style of dance. It'll help you broaden your horizons, and maybe help you find other people as passionate about dance as you are.

Don't quit dancing. Try talking with some of the other classmate. It help you be self confidence. Because I'm the same way, when it dance class. Yet people notice how down I look and came to talk with me.
Don't be afraid to talk with other in dance class. Sometime talking with other student can help you become self confidence.

I don't know much about dance, but I can tell you that you shouldn't give up on something you love. I play guitar and I had a lot of difficulty learning it when I was younger. I just gave up on it after a while, but I started playing again after a year or 2 and I'm glad I did.

Dear one, you can try quiting but it will come back and haunt you. Dance always does. Especially if you are crying in class, it's because you NEED it. Your body needs it. Who cares if you don't have friends there. You go there to learn and to dance.
Read the book "Acrobats of the Gods". And continue dancing.

If they're all nice, start a conversation with someone and make some friends...Or you could always just change studios. But quitting dance would not be an option for me.

find a diffrent class or a different studio, don't quit dancing alltogether
you say this studio is good but I'm sure this is not the only good studio in the world, or in your area for that matter. Some studios are good but unfriendly. It may be nothing about you, it might be their unfriendliness.
don't quit what you love, quit the unsupportive people
