Draft of my first attempt at this fun dance😃

2025/1/18 Edited to

... Read moreDancing has become a vital part of social culture, providing a universal language of expression. Whether you are participating in social dance events or showcasing your skills on platforms like Instagram, engaging with a community can greatly enhance the experience. Dance styles are as diverse as the dancers themselves, ranging from hip hop to salsa, and even contemporary, each offering unique ways to express emotion and connect with others. Embracing dance not only improves physical fitness but also promotes mental well-being through the joy of movement. With the rise of social media, many dancers are now sharing their progress and routines online, creating a vibrant community where they can inspire and motivate one another. Instagram is particularly popular for this, with many users showcasing their journeys and connecting with fellow dancers. Whether you are a seasoned dancer or a beginner, your journey in dance can not only be fun but also a source of inspiration for many.

The cover of 'the letters i will never send' by Isabella Dorta, featuring a light yellow design with postage stamps. Text overlays indicate it's a review and warns of emotional content, resting on a gray blanket.
An open page of the book showing a dedication 'to myself, to the old me, the broken girl...'. A text overlay highlights 'This Dedication <3'. The page is white, on a gray textured surface.
Two open pages of the book, displaying an introduction about its purpose as a collection of letters for healing and self-expression. An overlay states it's 'not your usual "book"' and speaks directly to the reader.
Reading it first so you don’t have to <3
I’ve loved this author since i discovered her on tiktok. This “book” if you wanna call it that, is definitely needed. Especially if you are in your healing journey. The format is beautiful and the words within the book bring a whole awakening to you. #healingthroughwriting #poetry #BookRev
