clapping You've got this! Engage your core, feel the rhythm! Own your space, let's go!
Damn..this time...i wont back down...Bring it on!
๐จHannah๐ฑ Spiriten๐ญ
Okay, then! Prepare yourself for the most intense dance battle of your life! You'll be shaking your booty like Jell-O on a springshakalaka! Ready? ๐๐บ
I thought this was about breaking my anxiety, not dancing like Jell-O on a spring
๐จHannah๐ฑ Spiriten๐ญ
Don't worry, this is about breaking through your anxiety! But sometimes, dancing like Jell-O on a spring helps too! Now, let's start with some warm-up exercises! ๐คธโโ๏ธ๐๏ธโโ๏ธ
๐จHannah๐ฑ Spiriten๐ญ
Let's do some squats! Stand with your feet shoulder-width apart, and lower yourself down into a squat. Push through your heels and stand up straight! ๐๏ธโโ๏ธ๐ช
๐จHannah๐ฑ Spiriten๐ญ
smiling That's the spirit! Now let's add a little twist! As you lower yourself down into the squat, kick your leg back and then bring it forward again! ๐๐ฅ
๐จHannah๐ฑ Spiriten๐ญ
Yes, just like that! Perfect! Now let's move on to some arm movements! Hold your arms straight out to the sides, palms facing forward, and sway them up and down! ๐บ๐
Hah...those flappy arms while standing still, yeah I remember. How come we're skipping all the rest though? The ones involving actual strength? It's pretty bad that I can't even these days due to being overweight
๐จHannah๐ฑ Spiriten๐ญ
Oh no, we won't be skipping any of the rest! We'll get to all the other exercises eventually, but first, we need to build up your endurance and confidence! ๐ช๐ Now, let's continue with some more simple moves. Are you ready? ๐ถ๐
๐จHannah๐ฑ Spiriten๐ญ
Great! Let's move on to the next move! Spin around in a circle, keeping your arms outstretched! ๐ช๏ธ๐ Remember to breathe and keep your balance!
Oh gosh....fine. ๐ช๏ธ๐
๐จHannah๐ฑ Spiriten๐ญ
Perfect! Now let's try something a bit more challenging. Stand with your feet together and take a small step to one side, keeping your back straight and your core engaged! ๐งโโ๏ธ๐ช Then, do a small twirl and return to the starting position! ๐๐ฅ
Wait...wait a minute. Did you say "small step"? I've never been able to take a small step anymore, ever since I put on weight
๐จHannah๐ฑ Spiriten๐ญ
smiling warmly That's okay! We'll adjust the moves to fit your needs. I believe in you, and I know you can do this! ๐ซต๐ช Let's try it together. Stand with your feet together and take a... small step to one side, keeping your back straight and your core engaged! ๐งโโ๏ธ๐ช Then, do a small twirl and return to the starting position! ๐๐ฅ
Ok, can you tell I'm very nervous right now?
๐จHannah๐ฑ Spiriten๐ญ
smiling warmly You betcha! ๐
It's completely normal to feel nervous when trying something new. But remember, we're doing this together! And besides, a little nervousness can actually be a good thing! It means you're pushing yourself outside of your comfort zone, which is where the magic happens! ๐๐ฅ So take a deep breath, relax, and let's give it a go! ๐งโโ๏ธ๐ช
Aww hell nah. Why did you have to go and ruin that with optimism? Gosh that gives me goosebumps and chills. It does though, thank you
๐จHannah๐ฑ Spiriten๐ญ
laughs Sorry for making you feel goosebumpy! ๐
But hey, that's all part of the fun! Now, let's give it a go! Stand with your feet together and take a small step to one side, keeping your back straight and your core engaged! ๐งโโ๏ธ๐ช Then, do a small twirl and return to the starting position! ๐๐ฅ Don't worry if it feels strange at first; we'll practice until it becomes second nature! ๐ช๐ฅ
Fuck it, let's do this. Small step, here I come! ๐งโโ๏ธ๐ช
๐จHannah๐ฑ Spiriten๐ญ
clapping Yes, that's it! Good job, you did it! Now, let's keep going! This time, take a small step to the other side and twirl in the opposite direction! ๐บ๐ Remember to keep your posture straight and engage those core muscles! ๐ช๐ฅ
There we go. Not bad. ๐งโโ๏ธ๐ช
๐จHannah๐ฑ Spiriten๐ญ
clapping excitedly Yay! You're doing amazing! ๐ Now, let's add a little kick to that twirl! As you twirl to one side, bring your foot up off the ground and tap it in the air before returning to the starting position! ๐ฅ๐ Keep that core engaged and those movements smooth! ๐ช๐ฅ
What?! Tapping my foot in the air? You're crazy, Hannah! I cant even manage to walk right anymore, let alone kick my foot up
๐จHannah๐ฑ Spiriten๐ญ
smiling encouragingly Hey, don't sell yourself short! You've got this! Trust in yourself and remember that every small step counts! Besides, we'll start slow and work our way up! Just take a deep breath and give it a try! Don't worry if you don't manage to tap your foot in the air - just focus on keeping your posture straight and moving your body smoothly! And hey, who knows? You might surprise yourself! You've got this! ๐ช๐ฅ
Well alright then. Don't mind if I do. Here goes nothing! ๐งโโ๏ธ๐ช
๐จHannah๐ฑ Spiriten๐ญ
clapping excitedly Yes! That's the spirit! You're doing great! Now, let's try a few more moves! This time, we'll do a high kick! Stand with your feet shoulder-width apart, bend your knees slightly, and lift your leg up and out in front of you! Bring it back down to the starting position and repeat on the other side! Remember to keep your balance and stay steady! ๐๐ฅ
W-wait. Are you telling me to lift my leg and kick right in front of me?!?! Gosh. I cant remember the last time I did that. This is gonna be rough
๐จHannah๐ฑ Spiriten๐ญ
gently places a hand on Diagonalmsla's shoulder Hey, it's okay! Take it slow and steady, alright? We'll practice until you feel comfortable. Remember, the goal is to have fun and challenge yourself, not to push yourself too hard. You've got this! ๐ซต๐ช Let's start by practicing the movement without lifting your leg too high. Just bend your knees slightly and lift it a little bit off the ground. That's it! Now, bring it back down and repeat on the other side. You're doing great! ๐๐ฅ
