I have been dancing international/ social modern & Latin for over 10 years, I went thru some good coaching, I have very easy going pleasant personality. I work in it field.

2001: lots of classes over 9 months with Tom & Debra, Donna & Ray, Donna & Mike (including role reversal--lots of fun), Jane & Reyned, workshop on zen & chi of swing with Doug Silton, Balboa/Bal-Swing with David Rehm, & others. Went to some dances, but didn't have a partner to practice with so almost immediately forgot what I learned in class.

Spring 2007: Started taking classes again: beginner's class again with Tom & Debra, intermediate Lindy with Donna & Mike, intermediate Hollywood Lindy with Michael & Poppy, Level I Smooth Lindy & Balboa with David Rehm, intermediate Lindy with Donna & Mike, workshops with Rusty Frank and Dabe & Janelle, and others. WCS class was okay, but I thought rather too slow.

I really wanted to be a good swing dancer. Thought about performing, competing, even teaching. I love the way swing dancing feels and love the music, whether from the swing era, or rockabilly, or blues. I also used to perform this music and play cornet and harmonicas in bands, including one that played at swing dances in the DC area.

I have several swing dance instruction DVDs, and have read a lot about the history and different styles. Interested in distinctions between different styles of swing dancing in different decades and parts of the country and learning to dance the different styles.

The advice I have received is "just go to dances." But at dances you can't stop and analyze why a lead or a move didn't work right and correct it. I can practice music alone but it's more difficult to practice partner dancing alone. I would like to find a woman who wants to learn to swing dance better or one who is already a good dancer and would help me learn to dance better.

My living room has a hardwood floor and is reserved for dancing. I have lots of CDs with music suitable for swing dancing of various styles.

Had two t-shirts made with "Seeking Swing Dancing Practice Partner" on them; wore them to classes. Two women said they would practice, but only at dances.

Some of my other interests are taking video and photographs, meditating, studying buddhism and taoism, walking, and playing music (jazz, swing, standards, blues, rock, folk).

I've given up dancing for now (2008) because I've been unable to find a partner to practice with at home.

Due to 2500 character limitation, see July 2017 update in the section "I'm Looking For."

Proficiency in all ballroom styles and a good follower. Wanting to start competition locally. Flexible work schedule allows for intensive dance training.

SlowFox, SlowWaltz and Rumba are my preferred dances. I have done some tournaments many years ago in austria.

I'm looking to complete the dvida syllabus and be able to perform and compete well I love dancingand would also like a practice partner

I like Latin rhythms, especially Bachata and Salsa.

I danced as a child, adolescent and still enjoy it now as an adult.

I taken up dance classes once again, having originally learned ballroom dancing 8-9 years ago for a couple of years and then stopped. More recently have had two year's dance experience and am looking for a social dance partner with whom I could practice once a week or so and go to a ball once or twice a month.

I love to dance ballroom and latino and I would like to have a partner so that I can get to know the person and continue improving. I sometime go to latino clubs but you rarely find the proper match and if you do, you may never see that person again. I wish to find someone that

has the same passion for the dance as I have, dancing has to come from the soul, the rest follows. I'm very easy going, I like to laugh and have fun dancing.

I’m serious about improving, learning, and growing as a dancer. I do not compete, yet.

I’m working on my Bronze AM. I’ll following the Dvida syllabus.

I’ve been taking private lessons once a week and practice twice a week.

I work out at the gym 3 times a week. I enjoy hikes, reading, cooking, and the spending time with friends.

I have dance Argentine tango for a few years. I can lead anything.

I begin my dance journey a year and a half ago, without any dance background. I dove in headfirst and took all kinds of classes 7 days a week, and quickly moved up to advanced classes and private lessons. I am not looking to compete- just have fun social dancing and going to dance events once or twice a week.

I am a novelist. I have 2 years dance experience, but haven’t practiced in years, so I’m just trying to get back in the habit since I’m new to the area.

Practice with a partner in Salsa, Bachata, Kizomba, & Cumbia

Just starting my dance journey, looking to practice so I can join the social dancing scene

I used to go social dancing about 30 years ago, but never got past beginner level. I'm retired from teaching so I have more time to practice and learn. I have taken a few free lessons at dance venues.

I was born in Puerto Rico but have been in U.S. for 25 years. I started dancing when I was a kid. I love to dance all types of music but I surely love to dance BACHATA(my favorite), Salsa, Merengue and everything that has music in it. Dancing is in my blood, I can dance even when I am sleeping.

I enjoy the latin style of dancing. I would like go find a dance partner to meet 3 or 4 times a week.
