Does Dancing As A Young Girl Or Teenage Girl Make You Grow Up To Be A Stripper?


So after a great trip for the Supporters of the Dancing Dolls, we are back to our normal activities with families and work and of course, our online conversations about the future of the Dancing Dolls and the Upcoming Activities they are involved in. We are all excited to see, just where they are going to advance to, from here. 

As we gather on Social Media to talk and visit and enjoy the company of other Supporters, we are acutely aware of opposition and negativity among others. They come out sooner or later, dressed in Supporter gear, sucking up to Dianna and other members of the DD4L & DDP. They SEEM to be supporters...but they always come out with something negative or something that sounds more like jealously than SUPPORT. Or they go to a filmed event and can't hardly wait to get home and upload their funky videos of competition....or tell who the winner was..LOL

This blog article is going to address the FACTS of one of the most RECENT ATTACKS on Dianna and the Dolls. Majorette Dance has been around since the 1700'S...  https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Majorette_(dancer)..NOT a new discovery.

We had a Supporter, recently, say that she felt the dances being done by the Dolls at various competitions and the music being played, was too provocative for girls to do and that it would probably make them grow up want to be STRIPPERS......OKAY....Deep Breath...LOL..Okay!

Instead of cussing or calling names, we want to provide the FACTS of what dance does do to girls who get involved in ANY kind of dancing. We are providing actual facts, provided by experts in the field of dance. These two examples are by Professionals who have observed the results of dancing in both young children and in teenagers. These facts, include all types of dancing. It does not discriminate between different kinds of dancing.
If you don't KNOW the benefits and are judging what Dianna Williams is trying to do with these kids, it is important to have more knowledge versus just looking so damn ignorant.

As for the subject of child exploitation, I would venture to say NOBODY GUARDS the integrity or the safety or the well being of those girls, more than Dianna Williams. She is going to be the first to say NO, they aren't doing that or I don't like the way this is done, because of concern for the girls. She would NEVER stand by and allow ANY exploitation. So That was a Silly Argument as well. 

However, WE KNOW, as Supporters, exactly what the benefits are. We are Supporters, not just because they are on TV. We are Supporters because we have a child or grandchild who has dreamed of dancing and because of  Bring It, NOW have the courage to go for their dreams...seeing REAL girls, struggling to have the best life possible.

We are Supporters, because we have children who have been dancing at the Dollhouse Dance Factory. Though we may not be on TV, we are there, supporting our girls..who get exactly the same instruction that everyone else that you see, gets. We are Supporters because we can SEE the benefits listed below, working in so many girls we know.

It is not now, nor never has been about a Damn TV Show. It is about the END Results! It is about teaching girls and young women to be STRONG...INDEPENDENT....SELF CONFIDENT...To DREAM....

It would SEEM to the TRUE SUPPORTERS of the Dancing Dolls, who do get it...that it is all about those things....It would also SEEM That the Supposed Supporters are just looking for an avenue to something else....They FAILED to secure their own dream and if Dianna won't acknowledge them or give them the time of day, they turn like a bad apple. They start spewing nastiness and calling it SOUND ADVICE...


**Here is a quote from Robert Williams(Dianna's Husband) I took from Facebook:

"I can stand on the sideline and watch another brother/sister shine. When it was my time to get in the game and it wasn't a position for me, I created my own team. There is plenty of opportunities for you than to hate on someone else running their team (dreams). Get your own. Got the same 24 hrs just like the next man"!.....***********

BRAVO Robert! I couldn't have said it better myself. EVERYBODY has the opportunity to GO FOR THEIR DREAMS...If you spend you time trying to steal or degrade others, you are wasting valuable time to get your own dream taken care of. NOBODY GAVE this dream to Dianna Williams and her family...she worked her ass off for it...They ALL did...Everybody in the show.

Nobody CARES if YOU DON"T LIKE Dianna or the Show..or The STYLE OF DANCE. or the MUSIC.....That's cool..Your RIGHT...However, to get upset over WHAT YOU THOUGHT was good advice, that turned out not to be...is childish and petty. IF you DON'T WANT to BE A REAL SUPPORTER...Just find something else to do. Like Be A Positive Influence On The Children In Your Care.

Of the hour and half of research, I have done on this question about girls progressing from dancing class to stripping, I was unable to find any supporting data or study to confirm that theory. Everything I found about the subject, proved, not only does dancing teach discipline and determination, it teaches self esteem and self confidence. Because of this FACT, a girl is less likely to become engaged in ANY activity that would prove to destroy that self confidence. So the ASSumption that dancing to any certain music or any certain style of dance can cause a girl to be a stripper, a whore or anything else negative is just somebody's opinion.

Of course, we knew that. We also know, there will always be people trying to discourage or discredit the Dancing Dolls. Not because the Dolls or Dianna deserve that but because people are more intent on minding other peoples business, instead of focusing on their own. What makes it sadder is many of those critics are LEADING CHILDREN...THEY are responsible for the minds of the young, just like Dianna Williams.

YET, they are using that Golden Opportunity to SHOW those kids how to be jealous, petty and to do whatever it takes to attempt to look good yourself.or to instill false ideas such as the complaint above...KIDS NEED to HEAR FACTS...NOT YOUR MESSED UP FEELINGS? ..They do this, even at the expense of others....And we wonder WHY our youth are so messed up?..I don't....

When ADULTS don't grow up and be Adults, they should not be in charge of RAISING OTHERS. We can pray for all involved in this latest controversy and we will. 

But BE INFORMED...AS TRUE SUPPORTERS...IF YOU Come to Social Media, With The Intent Of Trying To Degrade And Discredit Dianna Williams or Anyone Associated With The Dancing Dolls, WE WILL DEFEND HER. BECAUSE WE BELIEVE IN HER.....To the point of running you out of OUR SPACE on a rail. Don't Like her..don't like the Dolls...don't like US....Cool Beans! That's Just Fine!

BUT Don't Show Up With Hateful Attitudes Cause You Are Jealous...Trying To Portray Unfounded Concern In the Face of Your Jealously.......Start Your Own Page...Start Your Own Dream...Get A Life For Real: Maybe READ MORE: Like the Stuff Below...LOL

The information below is posted from another site. Actual observations by Dance Educators and Professionals Concerning The Benefits of Dancing and Children/Teens.
According to the National Dance Education Organization: The Benefits of Dance In Early Childhood Are:


Dance is a powerful ally for developing many of the attributes of a growing child. Dance helps children mature physically, emotionally, socially, and cognitively. The physical benefits of dance are widely accepted, but the emotional, social and cognitive attributes have only recently begun to be appreciated. 
  
  • Physical Development: Dance involves a greater range of motion, coordination, strength and endurance than most other physical activities. This is accomplished through movement patterns that teach coordination and kinesthetic memory. Dancing utilizes the entire body and is an excellent form of exercise for total body fitness. Young children are naturally active, but dance offers an avenue to expand movement possibilities and skills. 

  • Emotional Maturity: Dance promotes psychological health and maturity. Children enjoy the opportunity to express their emotions and become aware of themselves and others through creative movement. A pre-school child enters a dance class or classroom with a history of emotional experiences. Movement within a class offers a structured outlet for physical release while gaining awareness and appreciation of oneself and others. 
  • Social Awareness: Dance fosters social encounter, interaction, and cooperation. Children learn to communicate ideas to others through the real and immediate mode of body movement. Children quickly learn to work within a group dynamic. As the ongoing and sometimes challenging process of cooperation evolves, children learn to understand themselves in relation to others. 
  • Cognitive Development: Young children will create movement spontaneously when presented with movement ideas or problems that can be solved with a movement response. Movement provides the cognitive loop between the idea, problem, or intent and the outcome or solution. This teaches an infant, child and, ultimately, adult to function in and understand the world. The relationship of movement to intellectual development and education is an embryonic field of study that has only recently begun to be explored.

6 Noteworthy Benefits Of Dance For Teenagers

Dance is a fantastic extra-curricular activity for teenagers to participate in.  While the list of reasons is substantial, for starters, here are 6 noteworthy benefits of dance for teenagers:

  • One – Dance is an all-around healthy activity.  We all need a little bit more exercise in our lives…teens included.  And when it comes to getting some much-need cardio, dance delivers very nicely.  Plus, dance is also an excellent way to build an all around fit body.
  •  Two – Dance is a great way to meet people with similar interests.  Sometimes the teenage years can be challenging socially, to say the least.  It can be hard to meet new people who teens can really identify with and make lasting connections.  Dance is a great way to connect with a diverse group of other teens who all come together for a similar “cause.”
  • Three – Dance provides a way to get off the street.  Many teenagers desperately need a place to go and an activity to participate in that is wholesome and can provide a healthy outlet to escape from the challenges and pressures of everyday life as a teen.  The dance studio makes a fantastic escape from harsh realities and helps promote a positive outlook.
  • Four – Speaking of positive outlook—dance is a great way to help teens develop better self-confidence.  The teen years are a trying time in life…there’s peer pressure and many other things that are at the forefront of concern, day in and day out.  Fortunately, dance provides an excellent dose of self-esteem, self-respect, and self-confidence through its opportunities for learning and making notable accomplishments.
  • Five – Activities like dance help teens perform better at school. Maybe it all connects back to the increase in self-esteem and confidence that extra-curriculars like dance provide for teenagers, or maybe it’s even from the brain stimulation that dance and music are proven to promote.  Either way, the results are attractive—having an activity like dance in their lives very often correlates to achieving better grades in school.
  • Six – Dance equals discipline.  Learning complicated dance routines and continuing to improve skills and dancing abilities is certainly a challenge.  But the good news is that most kids thrive on challenges like this, especially so when they’re as fun as dance is.  At any rate, dance does have strong connections to building discipline; and without discipline, it is not very easy at all to get to the next level…in dance or in life.
