Hi, Thanks for reading! I love dancing, it's more than fun, it's a passion. I'm just an amateur who dances for fun, socially. I love 70s/80s music, Disco, Latin music - Salsa, Cumbia, Bachata, Merengue, Bolero, Tango, Latin Waltz. I've been dancing since I was 10 in Peru, mostly Latin rhythms. When I came to the US, at 19, I got hooked on rock, Disco/Hustle. I can ballroom dance a little but I've never had any training, although I can pick up anything very quickly. I could dance/train every night; I love going out dancing on weekends, but I don't have a partner nor a girlfriend; I'm hoping to remedy that with your help. I was married for 23 years to someone who didn't dance at all; it was torture all those years of not having a dance partner. I hope to be a professional dancer in my next life ;-)

I'm very romantic, affectionate, caring, considerate, kind, sweet, loving, honest, fun, spontaneous, chivalrous, passionate, compassionate, energetic, intelligent, spiritual, faithful, liberal, un inhibited, and open-minded. I have a great sense of humor and I love the same in a woman.

I'm full of energy and with lots of activity in my days. I'm unusually healthy. I exercise almost every day - weight lifting, jogging, martial arts, racquetball, yoga, tai-chi - still trying to lose more than a few pounds; yes, I'm overweight, but truly working on it. I'm hoping to have a decent body in a few months. Dancing will be a big part of my program; would you like to be part of it?

I love having long conversations over dinner in a quiet place, followed by a long walk by the water. I like to meditate and do it almost daily - trying to reach enlightenment :-) I'm a true animal lover. I have dogs/cats. I'm vegan (vegetarian for 30+ years); not so easy in Texas! It would be so nice to find a vegetarian or vegan partner. I'm a pretty good cook, but don't like to follow recipes, so I make up fancy irreproducible meals. BTW, I just don't like to drink liquor at all, it's nothing religious, nor am I an alcoholic.

Another big passion of mine is poetry. I'm an amateur poet. I've been writing poetry since I was 15. I have published 2 books of poetry (spiritual and romantic poetry); working on third. I'm usually reading several books at once, on various non-fiction topics: poetry, nutrition, enlightenment, higher levels of consciousness, life after death, spiritual development, near death experiences, Buddhism, comparative religion, eastern philosophies, etc. Thanks for reading!

I've been dnacing for a while, and am looking for a serious partner to compete Latin with

I've been dancing on and off for 8 years, mainly in international latin (cha cha, rumba, jive, samba). I am British and trained in London with world top 50 dancers, but have only been able to dance concertedly at certain periods of my life, so am not as good as I probably should be! I'm fun and friendly, and love dancing.

I danced growing up and majored in it in college but it wasn't really partner dancing. I pick up movement easily, am athletic and am looking for someone that is willing to teach a quick learner who is committed to the process but wants to have fun. My aspiration would be jitterbug/lindy hop or something a bit more active. I'm open to about anything.

Updated photos for currency. While I am seeking an amateur/amateur, the photos are of myself in a Pro-Am setting from 2019 competitions. The photos where the lady is in the lavender were in the Los Angeles area from July in Palm Desert. The photos where the lady is in red is from a November competition on Adelaide Australia. I do live in LA but travel to Australia for work leading to the Aussie photos where I work with the Pro when there - typically I am there a couple times per year. I competed throughout the US in the 90s and took a break for family, resuming dance in 2010. My goal is to dance at the highest level possible at the youngest age category where competitive - either Senior or open.

I used to compete in my twenties in Latin in the U.S. Now I take more private lessons because I love it, more into smooth dances now. Just want to dance all the time!

My primary background is in musical theater dance. I started swing dancing around 2008 and started teaching a wide range of ballroom styles in 2022, competing professionally for technical proficiency through full silver. I'm passionate about rhythm/latin styles, but I enjoy studying and performing everything.

Love to dance, mostly ballroom and new vogue. Starting Argentine tango.

Ballroom dancing 20 years, some competition in adult am-am in International Standard earlier.

Have had two steady partners; 3 years and 7 years. The first was competition focused. A great experience, but in retrospect I prefer a wider dance experience than the close focus that was needed (for me anyway) of competition.

The second and longer experience was even more rewarding, as that partner came from a country-western background while my experience was all ballroom. We shared an interest in West Coast Swing. We both learned a great deal and had some great times meeting in the middle and expanding both of our dance worlds.

I dance almost everything socially, and I love that there's always more to learn. i like ballroom, country 2-step and West Coast. I would learn more Argentine Tango and Blues with a regular partner, but I don't agree with the trend of specializing in a particular form of dance to the exclusion of the others. I enjoy the wide variety of dances.

The private photos are dance pics. Fair warning; the less gray the older they are! The regular profile pics are this year. :-)

I have been dancing ballroom on and off for the past 5-6 years. I've focused mainly on the Theatre Arts/Caberat division. I enjoy the music of rythme dances, although with my size, I probably look better doing smooth. I am looking for that dance/relationship partner, where I could grow old dancing with someone special in my life to spend time together. I am definetly one who will take the blame first if something is not working out, although I am not interested in someone who likes to point that out all the time :)) I definetly dance for the FUN of it, although mixed with a competitive edge to grow stronger as a dancer. I want to take first place, although I also realize in the end it's not about how many first places you had in your lifetime.

Social dancer, passionate for dance.

The pandemic really cramped my style!

I was dancing 2-3 days a week and really miss doing so. Waltz and country were my first styles learned from my father at a young age. Then came jazz and modern as a performer and teacher. The last 20 years I have been dancing social ballroom, country, blues and teaching occasionally.

I have been dancing ballroom for 2 years taking private lessons and have been competing at the Bronze level over a year. I take an average of 3+ private lessons a week and participated in group and performance classes/studio showcases in couple formations and Pro/Am. I have concentrated on the American Style dances, but have International Ballroom as well. I am currently working on/adding American Mambo, Samba and WCS. I took lessons in tap/jazz/ballet for 3 years as a teenager and was a cheerleader. I love to dance! My goals are to advance to Open dance material and eventually make it to Gold level and add more structured workouts.

Just got back from Cuba where I had been working since the beginning of the year. I took some salsa classes to pass the time, and it was my personal therapy. So I’m hoping to continue to practice and learn more.

I love to dance! I prefer country music, fast Latin beats, or today's hits. I'm also open to learning how to dance to any genre.

Been dancing latin dance so years ago. Starting from the beginning again.

Good dancer here. I can lead but prefer to follow.

I enjoy the foxtrot, tango and swing.

I took ballet as a child and young adult. Currently take tap dance classes as well as ball room dance group lessons three times a week.
