Hello all! I danced as an adult for a few years in college, but had to give it up when I couldn't afford it. I wasn't in the and Overs, just Adults or Adult Beginner if it was offered. I placed third in all my soft shoe dances at the few feiseanna I attended.
Now, 11 years later, I'm in my early 30s and my friends and I are hoping to get an adult class started in a nearby town. I'm really excited, but a little worried too. I'm at least 30-40 pounds heavier than the last time I danced and woefully out of shape. A medical condition means I am unable to strain myself in any way, carry/lift more than 5 pounds or get my head below my heart. I've also been diagnosed with exercise-induced asthma.
How can I get myself ready for classes (hopefully in July or August) so I won't fall gasping onto the floor after the first over-2-3? I think that's the worst... I remember what I used to be able to do, but my body won't obey me now.
Any advice or encouragement would be greatly appreciated!
