Move it 2015 was all things about dance

Move it 2015 is where we headed to for a day out on Saturday 14th February 2015. 

As always for a day out the intention everyone has is to cram as much in as you can during the day, therefore the plan is to always set off early. 

As per the norm, things happen and you set out slightly later than you anticipated as did we. 

Our travel down from the West Midlands to London’s Olympia exhibition hall where Move it dance 2015 was being held took longer than it should have. What should have been a 2-hour car journey became a 4 ½ car journey due to the need to divert after two tragic accidents both on the M40 and M1 and after witnessing the scene on the M1 where 3 people sadly lost their lives is a sobering thing to see and makes you reflect somewhat. 

Upon arrival at 'Move it' you are immediately hit by a wall of noise and a great number of dancers who have either just performed or are limbering up getting ready to perform, overall when combined with all the many visitors who was there already mingling around the dance exhibition all contributed towards forming a great buzz in the air. 

As a visitor to Move it the question is what you do first? What’s the plan of attack, do you sort out those people you know of and go and say “hi”, or do you adopt a panther styled movement approach by going up and down every isle religiously. 

Whichever plan you opted for, it more or less it never really works out as planned, as you'll bump into people you don’t know and have a good talk about what it is they’re doing within the dance arena and it’s that which takes you off track. Or you head towards those you do know but find that they’re with someone so you'll plan in your head to get back to them and that may never happen. 

Although it’s always easier to talk first to those you know, what Move it 2015 allows you to do is talk to many of those you don’t know. 

Although arriving at Move it 2015 later than planned we stayed right until the end, so for us, the day was extremely tiring so we can only wonder what 3 full days of Move it must be like for the exhibitors.
