Thread Name: What kind of dancing are you into?
Subject: RE: What kind of dancing are you into?
i started off with tap and ballet classes, I enjoyed both but knew I was never going to be a succesful ballet dancer - too broad.
But when I stopped the ballet lessons the tap went too, which I really did miss. I can't play Arty Shaw and that without my feet starting to itch. At the moment I'm too heavy to get into any kind of tap ( oh me poor knees ) but I'm ( successfully ) working on that. If i loose enough weight I'm going to find some appalachian clog classes too!

Other than that I'll have a go at any kind of dance. I love belly dancing ,because it just lifts my spirits and it's really just for me. I would love to get Parker to do some kind of partner dance with me, but he don't do the "E" word (execise). I've done some cajun and would like to do more. I've love set dacing and barn dancing. I want to have a go at Rappa. I would also like a go at Hula.

I sing, play the trumpet badly and the penny whistle worse. Dancing to me is just another way of losing yourself to the music.
