Dance Club - First Meeting!

Who: Shantae and Dance Club Members. Lurkers welcome!
What: The first meeting of the dance club! Let's see what you know!
Where: The dance studio
When: Backdated to Wednesday, January 29th

Shantae was starting to wonder about this club idea. There was no dance class currently at Smash Academy, and while she could practice her moves at the studio, she admittedly wanted more of a chance to use her skills. And seeing as there were no monsters needing thrashing, and no dance parlors to work in, a dance club seemed like a good way to do that. She was an expert when it came to belly dancing, that much was true, but she did dabble in other styles. As a result, she did a lot of research into other common dance styles, collecting music and teaching herself what she could to help organize things. She felt fairly confident she could pull it off, but she had never taught or instructed dancing before. And it made her a little nervous to think about. But if there was one thing she did well, it was swallow her own anxieties and just get things done. And that's precisely what she did.

When everyone who had signed up was there, Shantae began the introductions. "Well, glad you all made it. So this is our first dance club meeting! The main thing we want to do here is just have fun, learn some new steps, and practice the ones we already know! So what I want to do first is just go around the room and have everyone introduce themselves, and just mention any dancing experience you have. I'll start."

"I'm Shantae, and I'm from Scuttle Town. I'm a professional belly dancer and I've been doing it for years now!"

"I'm certain your audience will provide nothing but greater energy and insight to our meeting!"

A slight bout of nerves had kept Hajime from introducing himself earlier, but seeing the other students encourage Alorah had boosted his enthusiasm greatly. If he was among such enthused students, surely he'd come to the right place.

"My name is Hajime Tanaka. I've only performed cheering routines before, but I wish to learn from the myriad perspectives and rhythms presented by this varied and welcoming gathering!"

"It's really nice to meet you, Alorah!" said Sonny, giving her another wave being that he could greet her with a name now. He also waved at Hajime, because he didn't know him. "Hi, Hajime!"

"I'm Francine," she offered into the conversation, waiting to get some idea of the personalities in the room before speaking. "I'm a fan of more classical styles of dance and have dabbled with them in the past, but I haven't taken them up as a hobby or a profession."
