More About Me
I want to dance a multitude of dances well enough to have the followers feel great about accepting a dance from me or having asked me. Feeling pretty good about my rhythm now and want to feel even more alive, athletic, and energetic. I'm dancing more than five times a week now. I do aerobics classes multiple days and have had a physical trainer for a while now as well as a personal dance instructor. Currently taking 4 group classes. I have gone to both NY and RI for dance camps.
I can do the basic steps to most of the major Latin dances now. Hips are moving well though. I've had four or five classes now in salsa so can do foreword, side, crossovers, and several turns. I can do the bacchante line/partner although different studios seem to do it slightly different. My rumba is getting much better. Cha cha is fun now.
I am at an intermediate level in west coast swing knowing about six types of whips, some tucks, some folds. Know starter throw out. Have taken some advanced classes. Doing playing styling now.
I do some modern hustle but often revert to west coast swing.
I can dance the foxtrot and two step well enough to have fun and am told my form and leading are very good. Do the basics, underarm turn, zig zag. Corner turns. .
I've taken a couple east coast swing classes. I may be at intermediate level for most dances mentioned here now but still say bronze as some studios do things a bit differently.
Regarding waltz I do flip flops, spirals, progressive twinkle, butterfly. Enjoying the flow of music and merging with it is wonderful. Finally getting a sense of floormanship to avoid other less careful dancers. (defensive dancing? lol)
Re American tango I can do a little routine involving promenade, ladies underarm turn, Corte, side fan, side passes, and a few other things. Argentinean tango have had at least 6 classes now.
Been taking argentine tango for a number or months and find it challenging still.
Viennese waltz is still my target for this year (2017). Right turns still weak. I can envision myself doing the Vienna Waltz in my tux someday on a passenger ship or in a grand ball room. I am actually getting onto the dance floor now with this. Kind of jazzed at my progress now. Have the left turn down now just need a little more practice with the rest. able to do 3-4 left turns in a row now.
Spouse is aware that I am seeking a partner for additional dancing. She is also fine sharing me at a group dance.
I'm Looking For
Casual acquaintance for occassional dancing, someone with whom the dance frame seems natural and right. An hour or two intraday perhaps, perhaps more if fun? Possibly even share my dance lesson with instructor.
Your looks and age and life situations are relatively unimportant as long as your energy flows through the dance frame. Ability to smile would be appreciated as I project a grin myself.
I attend certain things during the day where another person could attend for minimal cost if old enough. I have a dance partner for most evenings and most weekends.
