Dance Like a Champion in Your Own Way

Dance Like a Champion in Your Own Way

Have you ever seen the classic Australian film Strictly Ballroom? It's a quirky and very entertaining romantic comedy. Fran is a star-struck amateur dancer who wants to dance with Scott, a seasoned pro. She is self-conscious and awkward. Yet deep-down she just knows she can learn to match this partner dance move by dance move. And, spoiler alert: she does! At the Pan-Pacific Grand Prix Dancing Championship at the end of this delightful film, she and her partner mesmerize the crowd with their unique and spectacular Latin dance moves. In the end, men and women in the bleachers leap to their feet with wild applause, then climb down to the shiny floor to dance their hearts away too.

Fran and her partner both danced like champions. And they fell in love. There's no better ending! At least for Fran. What about you? What do you need to do to realize your own dreams?
