The tense faces before dancing were the same for first timers and veterans alike. The smiles of relief after finishing the dance were also something special. Some commented that thanks to everyone, they were able to dance safely. Others laughed shyly and said they made a mistake. Everyone showed smiles overflowing with happiness. It was a day that made me realize once again how wonderful it is to see the smiles that are proof of hard work in training. NEW CONTENTS 2025/06/20 Jun 11th Wed.
