When the ex and I broke up I stopped dancing.

Shelled out a fair bit of credits for private dancing lessons about a month ago. Tonight, my instructor told me that the school is having an amateur dance competition at the end of the month.

She and I are in for East Coast Swing (my favorite dance).


Wish me luck, boys and girls!

I know I'm trying to lose weight but dancing is a left foot too far.

I'll stick to my now daily walks, which I hope to turn into jogging in a month or so.

Yeah, it's such a versatile dance because of that - you can either do single step or triple step, which means you can adapt the dance to the tempo of whatever song is playing. You can even switch it up mid-way.

Personally, I prefer the single step, but the instructors at my school prefer the triple, so I'm getting some good exposure to it.

Hey man, walking and eating apples is a great start! Keep it up!

A little east coast for you guys :) Pay attention to the two main characters (the guy and the girl), they really knock it out!

And a little more... this is a great dance scene because it's not too wild. Just swingin'. It looks like people actually dancing at a bar.

lol - lately I've been focusing on country - getting back to the proficiency level I was once at. For the next month I think I'll be working on swing quite a bit, but...

I certainly do want to get some dirty dancing in. I'll probably start with West Coast Swing at the end of this cycle.

Turns out what I thought was going to be a couple minutes of improvised dancing is actually going to be a choreographed routine. Like, Dancing With the Stars style.

So there's some pressure.

Also, there's this chick I dig who I can't seem to line the shot up with. Frustrating because I got the impression that she was diggin' on me, too.

Quick update - we botched the "pull through the legs" thing, but quickly recovered and killed the rest of the routine.

Hell of a good time! On to October!
