Latin American Dance Volume 2

Yesterday, finally we could start Salsa!

But before we repeated what we had learnt previous weeks ( Rumba and Tango). You know first times i was complaining about not dancing it properly, stepping each other's foot and so on. This time it was quite easy because we realised that we already learnt a lot.

Anyway, i liked Salsa. But Joerg liked dancing it more than i did because he was quite bored with slow steps and rythms of Rumba :) We started dancing Salsa with a different version of 'Hips don't lie' from Shakira which was covered in salsa rythms. It was so much fun!!!!

All ladies were anyway dancing so good but you should have seen their partners:)

Most of the couples were anyway older than 45 and it was quite obvious that ladies were so eager to dance salsa but men. It seems like moving their hips to the left and right was the hardest thing for them on this earth. Another thing was they were too shy to do all these moves.

Even we weren't taught so much yesterday, they started complaning that they couldn't do it.

I don't understand why dancing is digraced for men. They were standing like a tree and looking like asking themselves ' Oh my Gosh, what i am doing here'.

Ok, Joerg was an exception, even he's a German he surprised me a lot. It was like he was born to dance Salsa :) Hahahaha i couldn't reach his speed, believe me!

Me? I anyway don't have any problems with shaking or moving my hips as a Turkish i am familiar with belly dancing which requires shaking all of your body. So it was not so difficult for me with the exception of a few steps i missed.

Next week is final, the course will be over. If we want to improve it then we need to start the intermediate learners class in spring. Why not? But on the other hand we want to learn something else such as Rock 'n' Roll or Hip Hop. It would be much more fun, wouldn't it? Joerg is ready anyways! :)

I m gonna keep myself busy with watching some salsa videos as i don't have a lot to do for now...

Have a great day and enjoy your moment!
