Learn to Salsa

I had ‘Learn to dance’ lurking on here for some time and after giving it a bit of consideration, I decided Salsa is my dance of choice (hello Along Came Polly!) I like that’s it’s upbeat and it’s couple-based. Not entirely sure how I’m going to go about learning yet.

Classes begin early July; I’m excited and anxious all at the same time!

Looking forward to completing my first goal on 43things.com!

I had “take dance lessons” on my list, and now that I’ve taken a few classes, that goal is technically completed. So, I moved that one off the last and added this more specific goal.

I love latin music and want to learn to salsa.

Quick update: after 10 weeks of salsa lessons, I decided to enroll for course #2. It’s terrific! Apart from the course, I try to go out dancing as often as I can and I’m learning quite fast. I can now do all kinds of body crosses, twists and turns. It’s not about the steps anymore; it’s about the DANCING. I’m loving it!!!

ive wanted to do this for a while now. ive always wanted to be able to dance and salsa looks amazing. my partner is willing to learn with me and so we just need to find the time and money, its easy to start learning so i just need to pull my finger out lol. soon i hope.

I have wanted to learn various dances for a while now, including Salsa. I love dancing and dancing alongside a gorgeous women is even better.

I took classes when I was much younger, but I want to continue this Fall! Can’t wait. I crank up the Marc Anthony whenever I get the chance and pretend that I’m as good as J. Lo =D

This weekend we went with curiosity to a salsa party. We learned the basic steps before that. If you see everybody dancing, it looks pretty easy. They say it’s also easy to learn, I’m not that sure, so let’s see how we’re doing in a couple of months.

...I did. I had to cancel before because of a business trip, so I was really happy to be able to go last Monday. I learned a new move and the teacher asked me to dance after the lesson- apparently to see how adaptable I was: he swung me round and round and made moves we hadn’t learned yet- turns out I’m quite good at this thing! So when they asked me whether I wanted to enroll in another course, I said yes. Of course! Salsa nights always leave me happy and exhilarated. It’s good exercise- and I’m getting really good at it!
