Coming from a small town "no dance" background in Iowa, when I became single again in the early 1990s, I told myself, OK, get rid of that neurosis (that awful self-consciousness and lack of body integration with music, although I am musical you bet, having had one of those Iowa "music man" backgrounds for men's quartets, band, even sung soprano before my voice changed in a girl's madrigal). I'm not a performance dancer; I'm a partnered mystical in-touch dancer when the partner likes my vibes and like it when my partner almost leads I am such close touch and she is, too. I've been up to speed out at a country-rock live venue with a partner having enough fun that we've been asked if we're teachers. I've done Schottish on a Norwegian Fiord cruise dance floor with snow-covered mountains sliding by so well, even down on my knee that we got a round of applause. But I've also been awkward and stiff and out of it (trying to get Argentine Tango going) or out of practice so that I've thought, jeez, maybe I don't have enough momentum to keep going with this. But then I remember how many times I've offered to waltz with a total newbie and left her smiling and feeling "love it; like the movies; I can do it!" I love movie buddies and other dating fun. And I can live where I want to, but tend to spend summers in Michigan and much of the year in Portland and South Bay environs near San Francisco to be near daughters.

The first partner to get me going was a bold brown-eyed blond maternity nurse who called after I started dance lessons and said she needed a partner, and away we went. But sometimes she would say "What was that?" and I would say, "Now Lynne, that ain't the way to talk to a man." She was the first dancer in those days who trusted me enough that when I came to a corner doing the Texas two-step, she wouldn't look over her shoulder like almost all traditionally socialized, cautious about men women would, even after I had danced her into a post a time or two.

If dating evolves, I prefer women who have been there, done that, and it didn't work out so well with going by the "rules" and playing Cinderella. I see it for our generation as OK, we're equally responsible for phoning, e-mailing, coming up with fun things to do, making the first move (if it comes to that), and calling a spade a spade. Some fancy Belgium feminist cultural theorist said something about, start ground zero, with your nature, and take that where it goes, both the guy an gal. End of space.

I am intermediate line dancer that recently became interested in couples dancing. I am a member of a local dance club but I don't get much practice because I do not have a partner. I have done some two step and swing and would like to learn more American Rhythm and West Coast Swing.

I've been taking private and group lessons as a follower in WCS for about a year. Before that I had a little training in ECS and Hustle and Salsa - all of which I am a little rusty in now. I have also been taking private ballet lessons for the last year. WCS is my primary focus. I try to go to social dances a few times a month, but I am wanting more opportunities to practice.

i have dancing at Arthur Murray for 13 years and it has changed by life.

Salsa bachata free dance

I have been dancing for several years during school, then I had to stop training because of university. Now I got back to the rhythm and training for competiotion in latin and standard dances. Beside that I am willing to go to some salsa, batchata or kizomba night where I can practise and just move for the music... :)

Hi I love dancing although lost time doing it with having the children just about to participate In a huge charity event in aid of cancer research which is very close to my heart I’m outgoing and bubbly and will put in extra time to learn what’s needed

I took dance lessons and dance at studio socials for years. Then I started taking Argentine tango lessons and fell in love with those. Now, I'm primarily interested in and most skilled at Argentine Tango. I can also do Salsa/Mambo, Foxtrot, Quickstep, Waltz, Rumba, Hustle, and Swing. And I'm very good at roller skating.

I'm an active, fit lady with a sassy sense of humor who has great legs, a warm smile, and sparkling blue eyes! And of course it goes without saying - I love to dance!! I've been on the dance floor for the better part of 20 yrs. I'm an excellent social dancer. For 5 yrs from 99' to 03' I was on a performance CW & Swing dance team and we performed around the greater Seattle area. In 2000 I competed as an amateur in UCWDC for 1 yr. I would enjoy meeting a gentleman who is looking for a social dance partner, practice partner, dance partner to take lessons with, and if he'd like to compete I'm open to doing so.

Equally as comfortable in my hiking boots in the woods as I am in my little black dress and heels for an evening out dancing. You could say I'm a 4 seasons kind of lady! :-)

Living a healthy lifestyle and staying in-shape is also important to me and it should be important to you too.

I originally trained in dance and first found social dancing with Ceroc, but now enjoy most types of dance. I like the keep fit factor, learning new moves, performing and the social aspects.

Have danced competitively in the past. Just had a break for 2 years, whilst studying accreditation to teach, but keen to train again.

When it comes to my deepest values, I am stable, steady, and committed. And when it comes to travel and adventure, I am spontaneous and open-minded. As someone who dreams of mastering the tango, I have targeted this goal and set my sights on it. Would you like to join me?

I'm curious about other places and cultures, and I love exploring all around the world. If we're a great match, I'll pack you in my suitcase. And once there are little ones, we'll pack them too. ;)

We're the kind of people who desire stable long lasting relationship that is spiced with adventure. Distant shores and new ideas energize us. We are explorers full of surprises - there's never a dull moment.

So far, I've paved the way for us around the world: I've climbed to the top of the snowy 11,300 feet Jungfrau mountain and, at the other extreme, walked bare footed on the white sandy beaches of the Bahamas. I've gone snorkeling in the wild Great Barrier Reef of Australia and explored the streets of foreign lands... rubbing shoulders with locals, dining on exotic dishes.

On a more day-to-day note, I'm not afraid to take the lead when I know the crowd needs a strong leader but at the same time, I have my soft side of understanding, compassion, charity and empathy. It's a fine balancing walk which I'm beginning to master down the path of life.

To gel with me, you must have high self-esteem and rock solid values about purity, honesty and devotion. You were raised in a stable home with a good father figure who provides, cares, and loves you throughout your life.

And that solidity provides you the support to go out and play! That's what I'll provide you with. But understand that I am quite adventurous. We preached, got arrested and had plenty of fun. Totally spontaneous and wild. There's never a boring moment with me. Can you keep up with me? Close your eyes and hold my hand as we journey together above and beyond...

Also, if you're a foreigner, especially from France, Ireland, Australia and Poland, you get extra points on my list. I have a special spot for my foreign ladies in my heart. Your lover awaits you so don't be shy...

[Note: Please no divorced or separated ladies. Also, no ladies with children. And please respect my age range request. I generally prefer older females because of their maturity but I would like to have my own children one of these days. Thanks]

. I would like to find a partner for practice, performance, and social dancing..I am also seeking a mate, but my dance partner doesn't have to be my life partner.

I want to learn Salsa (all types). It will help me with coordination, help me be light on my feet, and stay healthy.

I love dancing but have always had a tough time loosening up. I am now venturing into places out of my comfort zone to grow as a dancer.

I was a former professional ballet dancer looking to get back into dance. I pick up choreography quickly, but have little experience in partnered social dancing

Hello. I've been dancing ballroom and latin now for four years and want to get better and better. Looking to dance social, compete and continue gaining medals. I'm 5ft 8" in bare feet so need a tall dance partner! Previous dance experience includes seven years' of childhood ballet, tap, jazz, character, and pointe.

I love dancing and want to keep dancing as my regular excercise rather to go gym.

I have a wide range of interests and have a background in Drama, Education and the Health. I'm keen to improve my salsa, bachata and general dancing level. I like to consider myself as someone with a good sense of humour and the usual... I'm a good communicator and I enjoy theatre, cinema, walking, cycling as well as dancing.

I love to dance and it’s the best exercise I can think of. I am very good at it but it’s been a few years.

I’ve just started ballroom and Latin dancing lessons and am loving it, so would like a regular dancing partner. My lessons are in Sutton Coldfield. I’d also like to start Ceroc so looking for a partner for this too!

Seeking dance partner to take lessons and practicas at studios such as Buttonwood st, Frankfort Ave or elsewhere in/around philadelphia. I have studied and practices many other moving arts over a lifetime of loving making and listening to music, and to dance and sing. Argentinian Tango is my latest new activity, attracted to its beauty and sensual sensitivity, as partners.

Used to dance way back when, looking for someone to dance with again

I have been dancing for the past 10-years, focusing on latin and west coast swing. I am athletically gifted and have had some private lessons but I still have much to learn. When I dance I experience pure joy. I have danced for fun and the social aspects not for competition although I could see maybe participating in Pro-Am's in the future. Dance is an important of my life and so I want someone who shares this same interest with me.
