What a feeling!

Rosanna from Italy

My favourite sport is dance. I’ve been practicing it since I was 4 years old, so for 11 years. I love dancing, it is a way to relax, to think, to reflect and it is a way to express what I don't succeed in saying with words. I have always loved it since I was a child. When I dance I don’t think about anything else, it is as if the problems that I have at that time magically faded away. Dancing with these feelings is a wonderful thing. I do classical, modern, contemporary, jazz dance, tap-dancing and hip-hop and these various types of dance are all splendid, each in its way, and each of them allows me to feel a different feeling while I am dancing. In short, dance for me is a sport indeed, but it is especially a performing art. The people who don’t practice it don’t know what happens inside you when you dance.

Viviana from Italy

My favourite sports are dance and football.
I started dancing at the age of five, but I stopped when I was nine because I had too much homework. I really like modern and Latin American dance.
I also like football. In my school I play as a defender and train every Tuesday afternoon. As a class we also play against other classes in the morning, when we have P.E. lessons.
