Several years ago I sustained a severe elbow injury in Strip the Willow. The bloke I was dancing with is known in local dance circles for being on the rough side of exuberant, and during the swing at the start of the dance he swung me so hard - with his arms extended and his elbows locked - it caused a tear in an elbow tendon.    Now I hardly dance anymore which is a pity, because I still like it.
