Our dance class is done this week; I hope there’s no graduation because we can’t even BS our way through a dancexam. By all accounts, we’ve learned a couple of styles including Tango, Cha-Cha, Rhumba, (English?) Waltz, and Jive; but learning is not the same as doing. Something I’ve realized though is that learning to dance is a lot like learning music (which I guess makes somewhat sense since they’re both arts). You first learn the pattern of steps (i.e., the melody), then you figure out how to make your muscles do what you want them to do, and then finally you work on the finer points like phrasing and positioning. But then what do I know, I’m not a dance instructor.
