Ballroom dance
DC and I are taking ballroom dance, partly in preparation for the wedding and partly just because it’s fun. This is the second class we’ve taken through the Kirkwood Continuing Ed branch (the first was wine tasting), and it’s been good times all around. The class is made up of an interesting mix of people. It’s about half young people who are probably getting ready for their own weddings, and the other half is middle-aged people who apparentlyt are just looking for excuses to get out of the house.
One couple is funny because the woman is probably 2 feet shorter than the man. Seriously, she’s probably 4’6″ and he’s probably 6’6″. I saw them give each other a meaningful glance when the teacher described the basic dance position, then the alternative one for couples where there’s a major height difference.
On another note, King Toad is the best band in the world.
