Confidence is strength. It’s not about what you wear, how you look or what you have. Confidence is about how you feel. Even with the things we need most, basic necessities, we have all had moments of feeling like we want more. Trying to fill those spaces with external things like make-up, clothes or any other material possession doesn’t always do it.
The saying “When you look good you feel good” may be true but it doesn't quite resonate as much as “When you feel good you look good”. There's something about the glow that beams from within that truly lights up a room. When your inner beauty can be seen by many it’s a beauty that can't be washed away or taken off. It's attached to who you are as a person, and that in your being is your confidence.
Finding, knowing or understanding what confidence means to you is an important part of our journey. For me, I've found that overcoming fear and unapologetically doing what makes me happy has been a major force in my confidence.
Since I was a little girl I loved dancing, and growing up I remember the days of choreographing and performing dances to Aaliyah, Missy Elliot and Ciara. Those were the days when it was okay to be a kid and have fun. As I got older my fears grew, it comes naturally as society often tries to categorize us. As a woman specifically I've found it hard to be comfortable in my own skin. The judgment from men and women alike made me feel as though wearing my confidence was somehow imposing on the standards of others.
One of my greatest expressions is my femininity, I feel confident, strong and sexy in that. When I Confidance I tap into my body in the most feminine way. I’m forced to be comfortable in my skin in ways I don't normally exercise.
It’s easy to see why Confidance has been named the best dance studio in The Bay Area by Bay Area A-List Voters Confidance has allowed me to express the sexy Iv’e shielded from the world out of fear of judgment. Oklahoma city Native, former NBA/NFL Dancer and founder Shonna Chiles has created a safe space for me to get to know myself and challenge my body and every time I’m able to successfully hit a move I feel like a conqueror. Overcoming challenges in high heels, on a chair with sexy is definitely why this hot mama loves to confidance.
I encourage women from all walks of life to allow themselves to be a part of something that celebrates them as women and everything that comes with it.
