Dance for Joy
Reclaim the Fun
Part of "We"​
Texas Star Inn has cancelled their dance lesson offerings—which is a bummer, especially if you were counting on that as your weekly excuse to move together, laugh together, and reconnect.
But just because lessons are paused doesn’t mean dancing has to stop. In fact, moments like these are often when couples drift apart—when something that was family-centered stops being an option.
And with graduation season here, a lot of couples are feeling the shift. The kids are leaving home, the schedule is clearing out… and suddenly, you’re left with just the two of you. After years of life orbiting around the children, it can feel unfamiliar—like you’re not quite sure how to find your rhythm together again.
Especially if you’ve been the one holding it all together—overfunctioning to keep the household, the family, and the relationship running.
It’s easy to lose sight of your own joy when you're constantly managing everyone else's.
Dance is one way to reclaim that joy.
It’s playful. It’s intimate. It brings you back into your body and back into connection—with yourself, and with each other.
Let’s find your groove again—together.
