Dec. 1st, 2003 06:23 pmAs much as I do like to dance barefoot, if and when the circumstances warrant, there are times you don't. Some of the students we have that came from other places, have said they were told by so and so that you must always dance barefoot.
I counter it with this: If you wouldn't walk barefoot on a certain surface (ie hot cement, splintered wooden stage, etc etc), why in the name of the divine would you dance on it barefoot??? I don't relish the idea of a skin peel on the bottoms of my feet, or scorched blistered feet from a hot surface, and definitely shudder at the thought of having a 2 inch splinter driven into the bottom of feet. Egads. Respect your feet.
Common sense. If in doubt, wear something on your feet!
