The Dance class

sounds interesting, isnt it?

i came across the event to be held in the metro section of the star. i dont know why, but suddenly i felt like going and see whether it's just like in the movies - you know, those dancers in those dance leotards and tops and leg warmers.

i went with sazi to join in the open day of the Dance Space, the name of the dance studio at plaza damas. they featured a dance for a 20 mins, giving the public a taste of what's coming should they decide to join. when we arrived, we saw the actual dance class, with seasoned dancers learning a move which i recognised from movies. of course, i was a bit alarmed, since the public who came were mostly teenagers and young adults! i told sazi " i feel old". then when i spotted some senior citizens, i quickly corrected myself "now i feel young."

the first on the list was tap dancing. although i pride myself for not having 2 left feet, i must admit that tap dancing is a challenge. up until the end of the 20 mins, i didnt know where i was heading, colliding into a guy next to me to stepping on sazi's toe. next was my favourite, which is samba. there're 2 brazillian dancers to teach us, and i liked it so much that i never cease to grin during the entire 20 mins!

after samba, there's cha cha. although cha cha is something that i like, the dance requires a couple, and partnering with a girl friend is very awkward, since it's a sensual dance. and so, not even half into the 20 mins session, sazi and i decided to stop. she waited for belly dancing, which i used to do, so i wasnt so keen on joining.

well, i signed up for samba class. although on my way back, i have second thoughts... hmmm....
