November’s early darkness hit hard this week. I missed dance class, slipped into comfort eating, and felt the weight of the season. But inside the struggle was a quiet midlife metamorphosis—revealing why this class matters, how November affects women over 55, and how we can rise again with compassion.
There are seasons in midlife when we don’t feel like we’re blooming — we feel like we’re cocooning. Quiet. Inward. Gathering strength before our next becoming. I call this the Chrysalyss, the sacred pause before a midlife metamorphosis begins.
Returning to dance wasn’t just movement — it was emergence. A reminder that growth after 55 is not dramatic or rushed. It's tender. Intentional. Courageous in the softest, strongest ways.
Midlife metamorphosis is not about starting over — it's about rising differently. One shaky step, one breath, one moment of self-compassion at a time.

Seven weeks. Seven Mondays of stretching, stumbling, smiling, and surprising myself. My adult jazz dance class started as a way to get moving again — but it became something more: a guide for life after 55. Each week offered a lesson in letting go, showing up, and finding joy in the awkward bits. As I close Session One, I see how dance has become my mirror — reflecting who I am, who I’m becoming, and how we can all keep growing, one step (and one song) at a time.
When life feels heavy, movement can lift you higher.
In this week’s Lessons from the Dance Floor, Chris reflects on the final class of Session One — a night of sighs, soreness, and unexpected self-discovery. Through her daughter’s guidance and her own persistence, she learns that the true magic for women over 55 happens not in perfection, but in showing up through the hard bits.
✨ A story of resilience, release, and rediscovering your spark — one dance step at a time.
Sometimes the world feels too heavy to carry — the news, the noise, the endless to-do lists. But in the stillness of nature, and the rhythm of movement, we can exhale again.
This week on Lessons from the Dance Floor, I explore how women over 55 can find space to breathe — in body, mind, and spirit.
Week Five brought a powerful lesson: you can’t control everything — and you don’t have to. For women over 55, this week’s class revealed how letting go of perfection can create strength far beyond the dance floor through self-compassion, flow, and presence. Through laughter, pain, and a few fast diagonals, I learned that joy lives in letting go.

Week Four on the dance floor wasn’t easy: sore knees, old habits, and low energy. But dance has become my keystone — teaching me that for women over 55, embracing change, persistence and honesty matter more than perfection. This week, I share how pain, laughter, and community keep me showing up.
Week Three on the dance floor was a mix of awkward diagonals, laughter, and a powerful jazz adage. This blog explores how women over 55 finding joy can embrace connection, humor, and persistence — proving that joy doesn’t require perfection, only the courage to keep showing up.
