I Tried Learning How To Dance As A Super Shy 30 year old

- In this video, I learned how to dance and performed in a show for the first time ever. Dance was something that I always wanted to do because it seemed fun but I was too shy for most of my life to try it. After growing older, I realized that I wasted too much time worrying about what others thought about me instead of experiencing life the way I wanted.
So here I am at 30 years old, trying new things I’ve never done before and in this video, I tried performing in a show for the first time in my life. 😳
Special Thank You To My friends the support 🥹❤️

hi, professional dancer here who also started in adulthood (started mid 20s for myself, developed into something way bigger than I anticipated). Came across this video randomly, thank you for sharing, first of all!
Just wanted to leave this here to encourage anyone else wanting to pursue dance but are afraid it's too late: it's never too late to pursue "having fun." It doesn't have to turn into a career, and no one can fault you for just having a good time. I tell my students that class is the time to celebrate PROGRESS, not perfection. And progress means something different for everybody.
Hop in class, because why cheat yourself out of a good time?
Here I am in my mid 20's too thinking it's too late. Thank you so much
omg professional dancer and you started in your mid 20s?! That is so inspiring!! I'm 29 and over coming a health condition, I'm so stiff. Cant afford classes rn but youtube has been my best friend lol
i'm in the same boat - i'm 30 and have always wanted to take dance classes but too shy to. you really inspired me!
Let’s go!! You won’t regret trying ❤️
Only fitting if you learn the New Jeans “Super Shy “ choreography 😂
Go and have fun. Book a trial lesson and enjoy the ride. I am almost 33 and started this month again as well. It feels incredible.
I’m sorry if this seems rude but you’re 30?!!! You look extremely younger I thought you were at least 22
They say Asian don’t raisin :) I guess I’m testing it 😂 thank you!
@@Hangtwi thought you were 18-20
Aww thanks!
@@vcyxz__Same 😂
Sameee.. Big compliment ❤❤🎉
I've never seen a video that is even half as inspirational as this for me personally. I'm 25 now and feeling like I'm getting to old to learn new things and cursing myself for never doing anything while I was younger. There's a few dance studios around me and I've been really interested in learning to dance, I think you've just given me that final push of inspiration to really go out and try! So thank you for showing me that it isn't too late.
yesss, 25 is still young! you got lots of time :) go book that class right now
you're so old, not, try being 46
Well done Hang! It’s never too late to pick up a new hobby. You were incredible.
🥹 thank you so much!
you inspire me to try dancing myself!! so many people tell me that I’m too old to start (at the very old age of 17) but now I feel more confident in at least trying.
PS your hair is gorgeous!
17 is sooooo young! Go for it!! :) and thank you!
when i was around 9 people around me were telling me its way too late to learn how to do the splits. do what makes u happy for you.
People can learn anything at any age go for it
When I was 23 or so I tried asking around if it's too late to start if I all want is just the skill, not any type of career. Someone online told me a girl started, _started_ as a total beginner at 22 and became a professional dancer at 28. You're definitely not too old to start for many, many contexts, including to pursue it as a career, depending on what type of dancing and what type of career you'd seek. It's never too late to start learning the violin either but kids get told 5 is too old! Why, because the people saying 5 is too old have a very specific perspective. They're thinking about a career as a violinist who is a highly skilled soloist and wins lots of awards and makes decent money with that. If you want to learn to dance because you want to have all these dancing skills because you just enjoy dancing and want to enjoy being able to do all these moves and routines - IT'S NOT TOO LATE, not at all.
You're 17, you're so young. I'm 27. I want to give you one piece of advice and I hope it helps you waste a lot less time than I wasted!
Two pieces of advice actually:
1. Overthink your overthinking! Critisize it and try to figure out what experiences will help you ACTUALLY GATTER DATA instead of just theorizing and thinking about things. Make those experiences, gatter that data, and then make more solid decisions. Otherwise let your decisions be a bit more flexible, be open to changing your mind, build that awareness of flexibility in your mind.
2. Always assume the people giving you advice and criticism might be the stupidest people alive or the smartest people alive, thay advice or critism might be pure toxic garbage or the smartest thing ever. Don't just accept what other people say with this thought somewhere in the back of your head that they might be right and you wrong. Always dig around a bit, seek what you need so YOUR BRAIN gets it, so your mind understands it.
I hope this is helpful! I wish you all the best.
I’m starting at 27! If I can do it so can you!
I honestly was so shocked when I found out you were 30 the first time! You look 20 lol
Haha thank you 🤫🥰
As someone who loves to dance, YOU DANCE AMAZING! specially just starting at 30! You are so inspiring and really gave me the motivation to keep dancing! Don't stop dancing. you are so good! ❤❤❤
Thank you 🥹 I’ll try my best
I used to dance in high school and now it’s been about 7 years. I do some Kpop dancing in my room lol, but I definitely don’t have the stamina I used to and it’s not the same as taking a class and doing something with a group.
Edit: I just watched the performance at the end and YOU KILLED IT HANG!! 🔥
Kpop is harddddd. That takes a different skill level so I see you! 👏🏼🤩 and thank you so much!!! 🥺
for years ive been meaning to find another video to fill the void left by ashly's "i danced in 30 days" video from buzzfeed and this honestly did it for me. super inspirational, especially since i've been wanting to start dance this year. thank you for this and i hope u keep doing good!
thank you so much
This video really came to me when I wasn’t expecting it. I’ve always wanted to try out dancing but I’m too shy as well and thought now I’m too old for that too (27years old) but this just inspired me to try things out because certainly life is about learning and growing and trying things out no matter the age! Thank you :)
I’m 27 too and took my first dance class ever (jazz) a month ago. It’s probably harder for me to learn than it would be for someone 2 decades younger, I assume, but I really love it and am having so much fun! I say go for it!
I'm in my 30's and I started my first kpop cover dance group this year. Amazing to see your story and you overcoming your shyness and courage to perform. Great job!
I am a dancer and you tell me wOT YOU HAVE NOT DANCE BEFORE???? Gurl you have got a whole lot of potential !!!!!! If you train consistently you will definitely be a great dancer!!!
I’ve been dancing for five years now, i’m currently 17 and ik i’m not in my 30s or mid 20s but i can surely say it’s never too late to start! Dance can help with anything, confidence or self esteem… it’s all about having fun! I teach women that are 40! they kill it too
THIS WAS AMAZING!!!! What a great story to achieve this performance and all the obstacles you had to face!
Thank you Phil!!!! 🙏🏻
You inspire me more than you will ever know, Hang. I struggle with my self confidence so much and watching this made me ugly cry. Thank you for sharing this part of your life ❤
this gave me the push to try out classes, It’s been a dream of mine forever but i am mortified, shy, scared, and discouraged by what others have said, but i love dancing and I’ve been hesitant because im 21 and dancing seems like something a lot of people start at a younger age. this is truly so inspiring and you shocked me at how amazing you danced… makes me think i won't be able to do as well as you, but i am willing to finally try. hopefully i can find classes out here
And I finally got to watch the whole thing and crying. I still don't think I'll be able to do it, but I'm that much more hopeful because you did and shared it with us. I have such a stiff body due to health issues and poor confidence, look very young for my age, and have similar hair struggles... just wow. Thank you. I'm so glad you did it.
I LOOOVE watching someone talking to themselves in the mirror. I think it's super empowering, developing that bond with yourself. And it feels so sweet, warm and nice😊
Hey Hang, seeing you trying new things like this honestly makes me less anxious about getting older. I’m about 6 years younger and always thinking that by the time I’m 30 I should have most things figured out and experienced what I’ve planned. I feel like there’s a ticking time bomb on my life.
This whole video made me reevaluate these feelings of dread that I’ve been having and see that I don’t have to worry so much about achieving things before a certain age and that I’m never too late to start new challenges and learn new skills. 😅 So thank you for this video, I really needed that.
Also, you were awesome!! 🎉 Props to you for doing this and the affirmations must’ve worked because you were a confident baddie on stage 👏🏻👏🏻 I love how supportive your friends and fiancé were the whole time ❤ Looking forward to future videos and following your dance journey 😉
Love from the Netherlands :)
this is so inspiring! i remember being 20 and feeling like i was too old. dance does not have an age! well... until your knees can't take it LOL i'm a little older now, and though i realized that dancing wasn't my forté, i'm still glad that i gave it a shot 👍
hi im 23 and used to teach dance. i still dance now but not with like an organized class since i dont have any near me. anyways, you killed it!! it is NEVER too late to start dancing! it's just a long journey to improve, so you have to be patient and stick with it. i hope you're proud of yourself because you honestly did amazingly! you could definitely be incredible at this if you wanted to. because you take direction so well and learn very quickly! and you're the kind of student that dance teachers love: the ones who go home and practice!! i hope youll stick with it but regardless, im so happy you did this for yourself. now you never have to wonder "what if?" 🧡😸
Aw I started tearing up when all your friends were giving you flowers 🥹🤧 I loved this so much
Dance is a beautiful thing
I teared up when I saw them too 😭😭 I’m so lucky to have amazing friends like them
I always wanted to dance and now im 17 and like i dont know how i would start doing it with others. I really love dancing for fun and i have many hobbies so i dont know what exactly ill do when i get to college. Seeing this is really inspiring! Dancing is so fun and freeing i feel like exploring it is super amazing!
THIS IS THE MOTIVATION I NEEDED!! I recently started to pick up dancing again because as a child, I used to dance a lot. Now at almost 22, I just can't do it anymore, but slowly with practice im getting better each day. This is an awesome video! It's never too late!
I dance for fun too, I'm 35. It's good the body and spirit! I started going to adult lyrical and ballet classes at 25 but took a break since covid lockdowns. It's been two years since my last class I think and I'm looking forward to going back! Thank you for sharing your experience and performance. Inspiring :)
As a super shy 25 year old, I started taking classes at a studio last year in NYC since its what I wanted to do for years SO I DID!! & now taking a modern dance class at my community college for an elective :) So happy I came across this video & you did great girly :)
you did so well! as someone who dances, watching this was super inspiring
Yess honey ! Affirmations are amazing and just going out there, doing something you've been scared of doing, you do have that confidence girl you just have to acknowledge it + praise it + congratulate it because it takes time and hardships! ANY bit of confidence you have is still confidence.
absolutely :') thank you!
Go girl!!!
I went to k-pop cover dance classes since last year when i was 34. It was around twice a month first. Then since this february i`m going to dance school for jazz-funk, contemporary and hip-hop 2-3 different trainings a week plus gym. I never really danced before in my life, never been sporty or active and i weight 92 kg, so it`s all really challenging for me. I`m also working on losing weight for better dancing. But i feel so much pleasure from dancing, i feel myself prettier and stronger. And capable to do things that not everyone can do, sort of superpower.
keep going you got this! ✊🏽
This video really got me emotional haha. You are absolutely right, we should try and do the things we want to and most important BE HAPPY.
As an extremely shy person wanting to come out of my shell this video really hits haha.
Really really thank you for this video as it give me a lot of motivation and some things to think about.
Also, you did ✨AMAZING✨ out there and I love how much you love your cat.
This is super relatable. I'm also 30 and i recently started going to the gym. I've lived most of my life sedentary and I have social anxiety so this was a huge change for me. Good job!
Congrats on your achievement! And I’m glad to see it’s inspiring others, it’s a great message :)
ure so lucky to have a supportive group esp when ure trying out stg new! i too was brave and tried dancing a year-ish ago by joining my school dance club, but u can really feel the vibe how ppl only talked to u if u had a dance background and if u dont ure lowkey outcasted!! so many times in my club and 2 dance projects that i felt so outcasted like i didnt belong u know :,) the recent dance project, the choreographer which was younger than me just look so DONE w me and pissed off. there were no constructive criticism just blatant pissed off and done w the grp yea so anyways i havent dance in a while ? :,) i was truly excited to grow as a person but man i just felt so left out in that club
I discovered your channel today but I feel like I’ve known you for a long time. There’s so much love and warmth in this video. I’m really so happy for you 💖💖
Aw this video made me so happy! and congrats cause you did amazing! I just started taking dance lessons like two monts ago and I'm 25. Im taking the beginner classes with girls that are way younger than me and are great at dancing, even my teacher is 23. Sometimes I feel really insecure because of this so it was really nice to find this video to share the struggle with you and also get inspired by you as well.
(I also danced to a britney song for my first live perfomance :o I was way less prepared than you so I did quite bad but I say thanks to britney because she really helps bring the confidence)
Congratulations!! You really did such a brave thing and your performance was so good! I've been dancing for a while so I know it can be overwhelming (I can always relate to not remembering what happens on stage lol) but you did awesome and it was fun to see how you documented your process :)
great job!! i love your positive energy and attitude in trying new things and just focusing on your experience of it. super cool and admirable to see :) i had fun watching you have fun and enjoy yourself
This is so inspiring! I just turned 30, 2 days ago and I have always wanted to dance as far as I can I remember, but my shyness n overthinking always got to me. I am gonna save this as my motivational video n hopefully I can build this confidence to dance at parties 😊❤
At 24, this is really inspirational. I wasn't sure if I was the only one trying to get back into dance. Good luck on your journey!
You are literally one of the most gorgeous people I've ever seen and this video is such and inspiration!! Thanks for sharing!!!
I've also always wanted to take a dance class but haven't gotten the chance. Thanks for taking that leap and inspiring the rest of us!
Not even kidding...you have really good stage presence...also the coordination is also perfect..you and the dance crew synchronised very well...good that you tried taking up dance because u have a great skill :))
i used to be a super awkward person and i still am a lil bit but starting really did pay off and it really was worth it , it made me more expressive and seeing this video motivated me to continue:)
You are so good at dancing!!!!! You are pretty, your kind ,and your amazing 🤩 Wish you all the best ❤
you slayed the performance!!! learning to dance has been my dream since school, and I finally started an online course on basics a week ago (I'm 20 btw), but I've alredy got overwhelmed by the fact that not everything looks perfect (even though I undertstajd it wouldn't on the very first week lmao), so I was looking for some motivation and your video helped a lot!
You did AMAZING. Perfect example of how it’s never too late to try new things!! Awesome job!
ur friends are so supportive 😭🩷
I love you! This was such a great video! The end brought tears to my eyes. You should be so so proud of yourself! You’re an inspiration ❤ following
I did dancing when I was a kid but quit a couple of years later. In high school, I wanted to go back to it but I thought I was too old, and I was embarrassed because I thought I was too old, now seeing your video made me realize I was so silly thinking it was old. 30 is not even old, either! Props to you for starting something
You're really incredible hang and this is never too late to start a hobby❤ thanks for inspiring me to dance again and i hope you're doing well
Thank you for your kind words 🥹❤️🫶🏻
Girl, I was kicking my feet and shrieking when watching your performance 😂 I’m so proud of you!! This was amazing to see!
Believe me it's never too late to do what you like and want. Keep up the good work and also you're stunning❤❤❤
30 too....I want to do what you're doing too....terrified. i used to dance all the time...but the anxiety and poor health got in the way many years ago since. I'm so proud of you and thanks for sharing.
I am 28 and I always want to learn how to dance. You’re inspiring me a lot and your performance is so amazing for only one month practice . Well done girl!! Now I will try not to shy and start learn how to dance and see how I will be when I am 30 ❤❤
I really like you words "if there's something you want to do, don't wait like i did. Even if you wanted, it's not too late. Go out there, live your best life". Thanks😊
U ATE THAT UP GIRLY!! That was so good u inspired me I’ve always wanted to dance but I was too scared because I’m also shy and have never danced.. I think now I’m going to try like u!! Thanks 😁
Love how support your S.O. & friends were! ❤ Ofc that’s how it should always be but it’s still awesome
I'm so happy I came across this video, I'm nearly your age and want to start learning how to dance. This video inspired me so much, thank you for sharing your experience :)
So glad you took this leap! I'm 30 as well but I was a bboy (breakdancer) back in HS days but I never took any actual classes. I'm now taking choreo classes and I'm so glad i did because dancing still to this day is one of my passions and something that brings joy to my life.
Moral of the story: Do & experience what you want out of life! People's opinions of you are not facts anyway.
YOU KILLED IT!! ALL THE PRACTICE AND HARD WORK RLLY PAID OFF!!
Never too late to start! And mad respect for you giving it a go! 👍👍
GIRL THIS RESONATES WITH ME, thank you for posting this.
I've been quite shy up to my 18 years old when I started breakdancing and playing on stage with a band. Up to today, this is still my testament that's never too late to start doing something and your personality will just adapt accordingly. So here I'm: started practicing Lindy Hop at 36yo, get back to skating and started surfing at 39yo.
We've just one life as far as we know, we should be sure to make the most out of it. Do whatever you like or you feel you want to try out. It's never too late.
Best!
P.S. you rock!
I haven't even gotten to 3 minutes of the video and I'm crying because it's so cool to see someone breaking out of their shell and evolving into a better version of themselves. Way to go lady!
This video is so relatable when I ever have upcoming performances.
Your video just inspired me to start dancing again. Thank you and congratulations on the show❤❤❤
As a 30 year old getting back into dancing, I know the feeling. you did amazing!! Keep it up!
YOU DID THAT !!!! 🥳🎊 i loved the dance, you killed it 👑🔥 And I'm so happy you persevered and pushed yourself throughout the process. And this was very inspiring! I'm a dancer, so it made me happy to find this vlog. And I hope this inspires you to continue dance, since you're amazing at it!
Even as a 13 year old this really inspired me because I always feel like if I wanted to be good at something I had to start when I was like 6 years old lol. Seeing someone much older than me do something that I’ve always wanted to do made me really believe that I can too
You did amazing!! You’re the best Hang!! ❤❤
Wooo!! Go Hang! 🔥💖 Keep being an inspiration for us shy girls. Love youuu!
LOVE YOU SARAH!!
aaa this is so inspiring! 🫣
I’m super shy but I grew up performing with a group (choir, dance, marching band, concert band). After I graduated from school it felt really intimidating to find a new group/hobby to perform with. So… well… I haven’t.
But now it’s been 7 years and I want to try muster up the courage to try dancing!
I appreciate you and it was so nice to see the support system you have (in the studio and outside of the studio). Also I loved seeing the energy you share with your cat and your partner. 😊
You did so well Hang!!
I’m on a similar journey myself so this is super inspirational to watch!
This is sooo inspirational! I want to dance since i can remember but tried for the first time at 30 and on the second month the professor said he was bringing some cameras to do some fancy presentation and he did not know what he was going to do with me cause i am shy… it definitely broke the little confidence that i was building and left. 😢
oh no :( im so sorry to hear that! don't let that get to you and keep showing up! do it for yourself
I have really loved dance since I was a kid but I had to stop because of health issues for about 10 years and I was always worried about wether I'll ever be able to dance again but this video made me feel a whole lot better, thank you 😊❤
I love this! You did amazing! So inspiring ☺️👏🏽✨
Giiirl I am also 30 and started my dancer life at 28! I think the 30s they deff are about worring less about what others would think and enjoying and figuring out what we love! You did great!
A tip that I learned in the last 2 years is Fascial massage the muscles when you start feeling them (can be a roll or just your hands), heat therapy also makes the muscle pain go away much quicker! Your fiancee is such a great supporter! ❣
If you want to dance, dance no matter the age! I'm a living proof! I started dancing at 36. I've been dancing a whole lot, several times a week in group for the last 6 years (Covid included on videocalls with the teacher). Right now I'm 42 and I've never been more healthy in my life, I've grown muscles I've never had before and If I have to run to catch the bus I never get out of breath which has always happened to me even being much, much younger... And, above all, I've never felt more confident about myself and my skills.
Of course, it hasn't been an overnight achivement, but more of a process that has been worth it every minute.
So to you all younger people out there: don't let anyone fool you, age is a mental state. You can be 20 and feel like 50, and be 50 and feel like 20.
Of course, if you start without a good physical condition, take it easy at first, cause being a little bit older injuries may appear easier. Some common sense, but other than that: DANCING EVERYBODY!!🤩🤩🤩🤩
Watching your video has been like a mirror to the rollercoaster feelings I go (we all go I think) through every year when the Exhibition is coming... The thing is that I've never had been given so many flowers to me after the show!! You did it wonderfully well and noone would have said you are shy by your moves and attitude! Kudos
I'm 28, soon to be 29, and I've been dreaming of learning how to dance my whole life but I was never able to do it, so I thought that maybe it wasn't for me and now it's too late, but thank you for this, you have inspire me!! ❤️💙
It's never too late and also ur jus 29!!
Gurl-, you're so pretty!!
LOVE THIS HANG!! You're amazing
YOU DANCE SO BEAUTIFULLY GIRL!!!!! I WAS DANCING LIKE THAT TOO!!! I WAS PRACTICING EVERYDAY!!!! ❤❤❤
I always wanted to learn how to dance since I was young 🥺 now you’ve inspired me thank you 💜
YOUR GORGEOUS AND INSPIRE ME SO MUCH IN LOVE ❤️❤️❤️
Yas girl!!!! I love this !
Omg you did sooooo gooooddddd, thanks for sharing your experience.
You are extremely gorgeous. Thank you for sharing this, you inspired me to go after my dreams😊
I think I have seen u in classes before! I am also 30 and haven’t danced for long so great to see other ppl at my age are also doing the same🎉
I am so inspired and so proud of you. Thank you
You are such an inspiration ❤
i needed this❤
Awwwh you did so great Hang!!! Love to see it
Thank you Andrea :)🫶🏻
YOU DID SO WELLL!!!
Walking in wearing something really nice and your fiancé/husband says hi and keeps gaming is too freaking relatable 😂 He was so sweet throughout this whole vid though! Really showed the importance of supportive friends and family. ❤
omg, I came across your account, and I gotta say I feel so wholesome watching your videos. Do more !!
omggg im so glad i clicked on that pin on pinterest about the hair cut you got. so I looked u up on Tiktok and found ur YT channel. im so inspired rn ❤❤
I've always been head over heels in love with music but I always had a soft spot for dance and dance choreo. I love movement modalities like Ido Portal and Animal flow but always wanted to try dance. Something to incorporate my love for movement and music but was always too shy. Your video is a big inspiration. At the ripe old age of 33 I'mma give it a shot. 😂 Also an inheritance child of baby face genetics. It's a blessing and a curse sometimes. 😂 But we vibin.
You did such an amazing job! Such an inspiration 🫶
Thank you 🥹🫶🏻
