well tell your mom of something else u might do or if that doesn't work you can always scare her and tell her that if you do dance u will have less time to focus on your studies and you"ll start falling! she will not want that and so she give up. i;ve been a dancer my hole life i like it but if you don't like it you will not be good so don't embarrass yourself. also dance is VARY clicky so if u haven't been going there for a while and your not vary good most of the group will not except you. try to explain this to your mom and maybe you'll change her mind.
hope it all works out
 
Okay, so for the past 2 years all I've been doing is art and instruments. Suddenly, like last month, my mom started talking to me about taking dance again. She's always saying; you'll love it, you'll make new friends, you'll learn how to be elegant, you'll learn self confidence. I'm sure some of what she said is correct, but first of all. I have absolutely NO INTEREST in dance, I don't watch dance, I don't like dance, the only dancer I truly love is Michael Jackson. I explain this all to her, then she goes on and on about how I had talent for dancing, that I used to love it (when I was about 5), and she's totally convinced that I'll love the class.

First of all: It's 3 kinds of dance in one class
1. Ballet
2. Hip-Hop (I just can't see myself doing that)
3. Traditional Chinese dance

Maybe I can do some other physically active thing, and suggestions?

I don't know how to convince her that dance just isn't me, that I have other interests, and dance isn't close to being on my list.
 
ok. well just basically refuse to take dance. And show her you want to do a sport like(for example) soccer or volleyball and show her much you want to do that. Eventually she will see how much you love that sport and she couldnt say no.

heres a list of sports:
soccer( i love soccer)
volleyball(i like voolleyball too)
swimming(like if you like swimming)
taekwondo(i love this been doing it for 8 years)
karate
kung fu
track
gymnastics
basketball
tennis
cheer
tumbling


Also, I know you said you didnt like dance but, take irish dance in consideration. Its very fast, not boring, and really fun(you should look it up on youtube) Its really cool.
if your mom REALLY wants you to do dance just take irish dance like once a week just to make your mom happy and do a sport too:)


GOOD LUCK:)
 
Just sit down with your mom & talk with norm tone of voice & let your mom know that you no interest in dance & let your mom know it after reading it your mom does have a point but on other hand let her know you are interested in other things dance is not everyones thing just be civil about it &just ask her to please dont talk about it
 
Hi!

I`ll say you that talking with your mom! HONESTLY. You say the true: you don`t like dance, you don`t to do dance, you don`t feel to dance...
It`s very simple talking with the true.

And I confess you that "do dance is very good for you and your body" , it`s excellent exercise!!
