Today Charles and I went to the Arthur Murray Dance studio for a free trial dance lesson. We both love to dance and thought it would be fun to try to learn some more Latin style dancing while here in Mexico. We specifically knew that we wanted to learn how to salsa as that is quite big here at the clubs (frequent club goers that we are...ha!). It turns out the woman who owns the dance studio and who was giving our lesson, was someone I had just met at Owen's swim lesson...small world! We had a great 1 hour lesson and learned some basic salsa, then the batchata, and a bit of meringue. Of course we learned just the basic steps but it was so much fun.
We ended up buying 4 more dance personal dance lessons and then they also have group sessions that you can try out. What fun to dance again as Charles and I love to dance and haven't had the opportunity in a while. We figured we would try out lots of stuff while we are here and then see what we really like to continue on back home.
Our next lesson is Thursday. We can even take the kids as they have a cafe with french fries and chocolate sundaes...how's that for bribery? They can eat junk food and watch us dance (or try to dance)! Ole!
