Being able to express yourself without having to talk about anything can give a sense of freedom both physically and physiologically. As you continue to dance, you will see how easy dancing will become and your confidence and self-esteem will also naturally increase, both on and off the dance floor only helping to further reduce your feelings of depression.
Disclaimer: As a professional dancer, you need to prioritize discipline and consistency in your training. Do take care of your body through proper warm-ups, stretching, and conditioning, because longevity in dance depends on maintaining strength and preventing injuries. Do stay versatile by exploring different styles, since adaptability opens more opportunities and keeps your artistry fresh.
