Swing may not be our thing…

Dance lessons are underway. The first night (last Monday) we were pretty nervous, but were feeling pretty good about the Waltz. We seem to have it down even though we still messed up quite a few times, which just made us start laughing at each other. I guess that is better than the alternative, getting mad at each other. The class has about 20 people in it and most of them appear to be taking it a little more seriously then Jon and I, but we had fun.

Day 2: Review the waltz… everything is great. Then… we move onto Swing. Well this did not go well for Jon and I. We managed to figure out the basic steps, after lots of trial and error. Then the spins started and we were not the cream of the crop. Luckily we did avoid falling completely on the floor and instead fell into each other a few times. Gracefulness and Balance are not our things.

Next time we will be doing the Fox Trot… who knows what that will bring.
For now we are dealing with our limited dance ability and sticking with the waltz. So don’t be anticipating anything amazing on the dance floor in June.
