Not everyone can be creative when it comes to gift giving. If you get anxious every time you’re invited to birthdays or other occasions where you’re expected to bring a gift, here’s a great tip: gifts related to something the person is passionate about are always sure to delight. Of course, if they’re passionate about collecting luxury cars or expensive art, it might be a bit harder, but if you need to surprise a very special dancer in your life, there are many great (and totally affordable) ideas for a thoughtful gift. Let’s take a look at some great examples.
Something Practical
Dancers who are really passionate about dancing will spend every possible minute inside the studio perfecting their moves and learning new styles. This may leave them with little free time to go shopping for new dancing gear and often you’ll see them running to practice with that ancient, worn out bag of theirs. And that’s the reason why a practical dancers gift rarely disappoints. A brand new mash shoe bag, leggings, leg or arm warmers, are all great ways to let the dancer in your life know that you truly care about them and their passion.
Something Personal
Dancers love to proudly proclaim their passion, both in and out of the studio. This allows you to get more personal in your gift ideas, and get a dancers gift that has a more sentimental value. Like for instance, an ornament, a watch, some piece of jewellery, a T-shirt, or a similar personal item that displays a dancing motif. There’s no doubt that your special dancer would love to show-off with a gift like that.
Something Educational
Educational gifts are an idea that’s rarely used, and that makes them even more special. Even if your dancer is not particularly fond of reading, they’ll surely appreciate the thought of gifting them a book on dancing. From books on the theory of dance or the history and evolution of dance styles, to biographies of famous dancers or choreographers, a dancer will be thrilled to own something that can broaden their horizons.
Something Pampering
It’s a fact that the busiest dancers rarely have time for themselves. A thoughtful gift that will allow them to enjoy a little time off is certainly a great idea. Let them unwind their overworked body by booking a massage session specially for them. Or if you have the time and the money, why not spend a relaxing day at a spa together? Such a wellness experience will definitely help them get rid of any knots or sore muscles from a busy dancing schedule – and they will have you to thank you for that!
