Happy Friday!!!
Well, we've been to three dance lessons now and I'm loving it! Between our lessons and the fact that it's So You Think You Can Dance time, I'm in heaven and totally into dancing right now.
Here's the song we are dancing to... but only the first minute and a half...
So our dance instructor (Tony) has been awesome to work with! We determined that we would do a rumba to this song, and it's been so fun. He's told us a few times that the fact that we are both competitive (not so much with each other, but more in the sense that we want to be good at everything) has made it easier for him to add stuff in that other couples may not get to. Now, don't get me wrong, we aren't on our way to Dancing With the Stars, but I definitely think we are going to have a nice dance that's more entertaining than watching two people sway in the middle of a huge floor.
SO, we have two lessons next week. I don't think we'll probably add much to the dance at this point... we'll probably just work on perfecting it... Tony said that we were going to "work on our style" next week and he's going to tape us so we can see ourselves dance.
Side note... it's TONS of fun to get to dance with a professional here and there, too... not that I don't love dancing with J, and he's doing a REALLY great job, but it's being able to follow someone who REALLY knows how to lead is really cool!
I'll let you know how our last week goes!!!
we're taking dance classes, too!
ReplyDeleteand it's amazing when the dance instructor dances with me because it makes me feel like i'm a pro! haha
first of all...love that song! and secondly that sounds like so much fun. Dance lessons was the one thing that totally fell by the wayside with my wedding planning and I def. think it would have been a really fun, let-loose, time for me and chris to have together before the wedding...so glad you're doing this and can't wait to see it!
