Shall We Dance
I never really knew it but Ball Room Dancing is pretty fun.
Last night we all headed off to a dance club to learn a few dances. You see the grandmother of the family I am staying with has been going there for 17 years, and she wanted me to come. Also after the dancing we sat around and sang Karaoke. I really think that the grandmother just wanted to hear me sing Yosaku.
Anyway the dance was surprisingly fun, and hard work. (I was sweating up a storm) During the 3 hours we were dancing they tried to teach us 2 dances the Waltz and the Rumba. I would have to say the from the male point of view the Rumba is a bit boring. (perhaps only at the beginner level) You see I prefer the waltz. If I could just get it all right.
There is so much to think about when you are dancing the waltz. From the way I was thought there a four groups of steps to learn. So while you are dancing the guy has to take into account the music, where they are, where other people are (as not to run into them) and which group of steps to use when. But I think it is still fun.
Tomorrow I will be taking a ferry down to Nigata to head to Labo camp so I will not be able to do any up dates for about a week now. TTYL
