And that's why I keep dancing
Nov. 29th, 2006 08:36 amI had the best dance lesson I've had in months last night. We brought the entire studio (3 other private lessons and a group lesson) to a dead stop while everyone watched us practicing the bolero.
God, I've missed that incredible feeling when it all comes together and you just DANCE. Two people feeling each other's movement, responding and supporting, the music often forgotten except as a base for the timing as your connection just flows. My husband was aware of our audience - he has to 'know' where we are in relation to the other couples on the floor and make sure we have room to execute the longer, more intricate patterns. I was so immersed I had no idea until our teacher came up and congratulated us on the return of our showmanship and his grin was so wide because the whispers from the rest of the crowd were a tribute to his work all these years.
