Latin Dance Class
February 20th, 2009 Filed under: Life | Tags: christchurch, dance, festival, friendsIvy’s friend and classmate, Maria, runs the Latin Dance Festival here in Christchurch. The festival will be starting on the 28th of February and to drum up some interest she has been running free Latin dance classes at Christchurch Art Museum on Wednesday nights.
Ivy and I went along to this weeks class. I was surprised with the turn out, there was at least 50 plus people there. It started off pretty slow with us all in a line copying some basic steps. Before I knew what was going on we were paired up and learning our first of three dance moves. After an hour of spinning and toe crunching we managed to become quite good at the three moves and were dancing away happily.
It was a pretty fun night and I would recommend it to anyone. Especially you guys out there. The girls out numbered the boys two to one, making dancing classes a great place to pick up chicks. Plus once you learn to dance your chances of pulling while out on the town are bound to increase exponentially.



oooooh just like dicky Gere in "shall we dance"…keep it up son,your blog is
full of cool stuff.(read it out to my wife and she started to swooooon…).
love that hand motion(part of the dance or pure inspiration?)
It was part of the dance, but I like to think I gave it a little something special.
