I’ll tell you a story that made me change my perspective on the things I could do.

I never thought about attending a singing class. Not because I was awful at singing (I think I have a quite nice voice). It’s more because I didn’t see the purpose of learning how to sing. I only sing to entertain myself (aka under the shower).

Besides, singing is not as social as dancing and you don’t have the chance to practice it so oftenly: when you go to parties you are supposed to dance, not to sing.

The list of reasons  could go on…

So, as dancing was more important for me I planned to attend a tango dance lesson (my first one ever). BUT : as I didn’t payed  attention to the announcement it turned out that the dance was actually …. music.  A tango music class

I was with a Egyptian guy and he was looking like he wanted to kill me for bringing him there to sing in Spanish!!

During one hour we practiced our singing skills on a beautiful Carlos Gardel song, repeating over and over again.

In the end, we both had lots of fun and were really sorry that it ended so soon!!

I learned that singing is relaxing and very positive for your spirit. It’s a very simple expression of feelings delivered in a beautiful shape.

So, I strongly encourage you to try  something you think you don’t  like or you believe you’re not good at! Explore!

Most people live and die with their music still unplayed. They never dare to try.
