I’ve been suffering from depression for a while, and took a dance class with a teacher near my age just to get out and relax/have fun. She said that she took it up to help herself get over it, and I want to also. I know this is a personal point, but then I’m not sure if I should ask or not given this. And also, it’s a personal point for me too, as whilst mental illness is common now (well it always has been, but you know what I mean) I don’t want it to come out.

I’m not sure if I should broach it or not, but thanks for any comments/advice in advance.

Do I understand you want to ask your teacher if she has a mental illness. OOOO I do not know. She may not appreciate the question. Maybe you should get to know her a bit better. If you discuss the details of why you wanted to take the class maybe she will feel free to open up. If she does not tell you the exact reason or that she does suffer from depression, etc, I think you should not push it!!!
