Before you commit

Choir Singing

  • Your single voice exposed and wandering off pitch would mortify you.
  • You would rather sing solo than blend and bury yourself in a section.
  • Weekly rehearsals and sight-reading rhythms feel like too much commitment.

Salsa Dancing

  • Needing partners and regular socials to progress would put you off.
  • Feeling exposed leading or following a stranger makes you uneasy.
  • Skipping weeks and re-learning patterns would derail your motivation.
