This blog is to track what I am doing in the wonderful world of dance! I'd like to invite all my friends and fellow dance lovers to follow me here for exciting announcements regarding my upcoming competitions and performances with my partner, Daniel Blain, news about new classes I'm teaching, information regarding private lessons, or the next time we are going out dancing!
This blog is intended to inform the general public about partner dancing. Dances such as two step, country western waltz, salsa, merengue, bachata, cumbia, etc are all great social dances; especially here in South Texas! These are also all dances that I teach.
That small list of dances though is not all I teach! I teach a vast variety of popular and classic dances ranging from dances you see on the hit TV show "Dancing with the Stars," to more specialzed dances like the old fashioned peabody, or the upbeat cultural dance polka.
Ballroom dance is a far underappreciated art form in which two people come together to express inward emotions in an outward form. It is one of the most underestimated expression of feelings people can use. Nonverbal language speaks mounds over any poetry or song ever could. Dancing with another person is a great way to start a conversation for the first time upon meeting, and also a way to rekindle an old flame. For instance, I've known more than one couple that has been on the brink of divorce, only to try ballroom dancing at the suggestion of a friend or colleague as a last ditch effort, to come back from the permanent cemetary divorce offers, to the land of the living happily in love.
If you have ever been interested in learning to dance, for yourself or someone else, or if you just want to learn a little more about this lost art; I'd love to be your tour guide on this magnificant journey. Follow my blog and stay up to date on all the latest happenings and trends! I hope to hear feedback from you!
