10 Reasons why I do Christian Ballet… π©°
#1. The number one reason I dance is to glorify my
precious Saviour- Jesus Christ! π✝️ (“Let them praise his name in the dance: Let them sing praises unto him with the timbrel and harp.”Psalm 149:3 KJV)
#2. To express my heart of worship that I could not do through talking, singing or writing. There’s something powerful about dancing… it’s such a lovely form of
worship that allows you to express your great joy, & sometimes your sadness. ❤️
“And David danced before the LORD with all his might; and David was girded with a linen ephod.”
2 Samuel 6:14 KJV
#3. Dancing is Biblical!π
“Praise him with the timbrel and dance: Praise him with stringed instruments and organs.”
Psalm 150:4 KJV
#4. Dancing is so feminine/ lovely…π
“And Miriam the prophetess, the sister of Aaron, took a timbrel in her hand; and all the women went out after her with timbrels and with dances.”
Exodus 15:20 KJV
#5. Dancing makes the heart merry…

“Thou hast turned for me my mourning into dancing: Thou hast put off my sackcloth, and girded me with gladness;”
Psalm 30:11 KJV
“Then shall the virgin rejoice in the dance, both young men and old together: for I will turn their mourning into joy, and will comfort them, and make them rejoice from their sorrow.”
Jeremiah 31:13 KJV
#6. Ballet is an amazing way to exercise & stretch… it greatly reduces stress and even releases serotonins in your brain.π
“For bodily exercise profiteth little: but godliness is profitable unto all things, having promise of the life that now is, and of that which is to come.”
1 Timothy 4:8 KJV
Note: Bodily exercise profiteth little, but not none! π
#7. I have six amazing sisters to dance with… ya’ know what they say, “ The more the merrier!”π₯°
#8. I hope to bless/ encourage others through dancing & encourage more folks to dance for Jesus!π
#9. Dancing is like entering a whole ‘nother world…
A world that’s bright & cheery, a beautiful world where the stress of life is forgotten for a moment, & you’ve now entered into a zone of twirling tutus, sparking tiaras, the lovely sound of tapping pointe shoes, graceful hand motions
& epic flying leaps into the air!
#10. Ballet is simply beautiful & lovely!π
From the achey/ sore legs, to the blistered toes & the sense of guilt you get if you didn’t do your exercises that day-π
It’s always worth it! … And when you’re dancing for God it will always be worth while!!! π
“I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that ye present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto God, which is your reasonable service.”
Romans 12:1 KJV
So there’s only ten reasons why I dance… I hope you enjoyed! And happy Dancing!π
“ Dance is the hidden language of the soul.”
