You loved recess as a kid, right? Sure you did, it was the best.
But for some sad reason, once you become a teenager, that best thing in the world fades away. Fortunately, there are a few people out there fighting to recover our collective lost innocence with a little something called "Dance Recess."
So what if it's just a slightly awkward dance session performed alone in your studio apartment or bedroom? The point is, no one is judging you... except, possibly, YouTube trolls, but forget them.
This important trend -- or soon-to-be trend -- was brought to our attention by Charlie McDonnell. (McDonnell was inspired by this "Dance Recess" video from a screenwriter named Linda.)
Watching the sheer joy exuded by McDonnell as he dances his heart out has convinced us: this really should become a thing everyone incorporates into their day. So, start lobbying your boss now.
