What goes around .... comes around.. :-)

I finished my last dance class today! Well, the last of this batch. I had missed quite a few in the middle due to my ill health and felt the loss today. The hours that I devoted to this were all stolen away from work.. therefore meaning a lot more. :-D I once in my life bargained time for myself with my boss and felt good about it. Moreover, its fair to take the organization up on their offer - of WORK LIFE BALANCE. The classes seemed a bit tiring initially as I got into an advanced batch after a gap of 6 good months. As the pack unfolded, I felt rejuvenated with every beat I danced to, the new steps learnt, blaring music, the soothing Surya-Namaskar to 'Jashne Bahara' and much more. The class had chosen Hip-Hop as the genre and I kind of disliked it. Being in the minority, could not even effect change. However, by the end of it it, it was just a song and I was moving to it. The instructor was one of the stars of Shiamak's troupe and his delivery in class testified that. I also appreciate the initiative where each of the batches had to prepare a short skit on ''global warming'' and present it on the final day before they break into a dance. We did too and a cute one that using some congruent humour and exaggeration. One of the best take-aways from this class is - The original steps to Dhoom Machale!! There was a sad moment too when I learnt that a young boy in my class lost his father. But I admire him for springing back to life and attending the remainder classes. Wish him the best in life. Had a cake cutting, smearing and of course eating session today! Look forward to joining it again. My presentation is on Sunday morning at Ravindra Bharati. The next batch starts on 21st April, 08. Dont know if i'd be in Hyd long enough to finish it. But would love an outlet such as this, every single day!!
