Thread Name: Attitudes to dancing.
Subject: RE: Attitudes to dancing.
I started as a singer (because I have a voice), I played percussion (spoons, tambourine, hammered dulcimer) in ceilidh bands, because my husband was a musician (and I have very small hands and fingers so percussion was easier than wind or string instruments). I danced because my husband went off with another member of the band, and I lost a lot of weight. Dancing was wonderful, indeed euphoric, but did my knees in, so now it's back to singing...
