Dancing

Have you ever ballroom danced?  About a year or so after I graduated from high school, 2 of my friends and I took a dance class.  Unfortunately, it was all women, except for the male instructor.  So we didn't get to learn too much and I'm sure he was pretty wiped out after dancing with each of us all night.

I LOVE to dance.  I used to line dance, however, there really isn't anywhere around here that I would want to go.  I used to jazz dance, but that was a long long time ago, when I was about 100 pounds lighter!  So, last year, my husband and I took ballroom dance classes.  Yeah, to some of you manly men, it may sound corny, but let me tell you, we had so much fun.  It helps when the teachers are very easy going and not drill instructors.  Word of warning, it is definately a workout.  You will use muscles in your legs that you didn't know existed.  We have taken the beginners class twice and both times we missed the final class where we get to party and dance all night.  The first time we missed it because my mom passed away.  The other time we missed, because we both were sick. 

Now that we have moved just down the street from the dance studio, we will have to start dancing again.  Do we remember anything from last year?  Probably not, but it will be fun to learn again!  As I type this, I'm watching ballroom bootcamp.  All I can say, is I am so glad that our teachers are way more understanding and easy going.
