Bachata, Baby!

I am officially now an student of intermediate bachata, as i finished my beginners course tonight. The instructor said i was doing well, woo! Despite the fact that i somehow was moving my knees at double speed to my feet... still now sure how i managed that! Anyhoo, had it sorted by the end of class, so all good. I actually enjoyed today. Mainly we just put everything that we learnt together and danced properly for most of the time, which was so much fun. It was easier than usual, and we managed to incorporate our turns and spins and leads and everything. I even managed to follow the lead, which normally i struggle to do. It was awesome, and i had a blast. Dancing is so much more fun when i don't suck!

Next week we start the next block of classes. Intermediate traditional bachata. I'm looking foward to it (i think!), even though all of us beginners will be entering the class at the bottom of the heap and i can go back to looking a little bit silly as i fall over my feet. Still, i can't wait to improve some more and get some more confidence. Then maybe i'll be able to go out dancing for real and not feel like a moron :) Yay for dance classes!
