More About Me
I'm now active in learning American Rythm, American smooth and Latin dances. Having taken classes since Spring, I was invited and agreed to enter the Chicago Harvest Moon Ball Amateur Competition as a newcomer, though I've only been learning some of them for about a month, now. :} Suicide, right? Well, my dance partner and I are coming along. What a great way to get a concentrated education in the basics!
I am currently dancing: East Cost Swing (fairly well, as it's been my main focus), Hustle, Night Club Two Step, Foxtrot, Waltz, Rumba, and Cha Cha, Social Dance in Standale. I started in Lindy and took a break for a bit to concentrate on these others. I'll be back at it, because I intend to accomplish something in that exciting dance!
I intend to make ballroom dancing a part of the rest of my life and a part of any future relationship(s) I have.
I'm Looking For
I'd like to find someone fit and light on her feet to learn and practice with. I've tried dancing with heavier ladies, a little more stolid and harder to lead, and I didn't appreciate it. I'm interested in finding someone to be romantically involved with to be my partner at some point, but a partner at this time need not be so. It may actually help the learning process to be "just friends".
Update: I now have one regular partner with whom I'm preparing for the competition in October, and we're working at it! We are friends, so don't hesitate to say hello, as I need a true love in my future, and all work and no play . . . !
