“Ever since I became someone that people look up to, I keep myself disciplined and try to become a good example for my juniors.”
However, dancing hasn’t only improved Cynthia’s life on a personal level. According to Cynthia, the benefits she has reaped from dance have been integrated into her culinary life. She explains how dancing has helped her in the culinary kitchen suites.
“Studying culinary means working in the kitchen for hours and it can be exhausting. Since dancing requires muscle strength and balance, I feel I’ve become stronger and don't get tired easily. I feel I’ve improved my reflexes, like being able to catch myself before falling whenever I trip or being able to move faster to catch something I nearly dropped. Sounds funny, but I do feel the difference before and after I did dance.”
