Re: A Dancer or a Shuffler?

I used to dance like a house brick but my good lady taught me how to tango..what’s the phrase? still able to cut the rug?

Neither - I can't be bothered these days.

Re: A Dancer or a Shuffler?

A couple of times over the last 4 or 5 years my mother tried to get me to go to lessons, saying things like it would keep me fit (I go to the gym 3 times a week, usually!) and that I could meet nice women there (like I need a woman in my life!). I think she's given up asking now, thank the gods.

I used to love disco dancing.
We did country dancing at school but I'm not very coordinated.
My cousin and her husband taught ballroom dancing on cruise ships.

Re: A Dancer or a Shuffler?

My brother is 8 years younger than me at the time I was nearly 20 & brother was only 12, though nearly as tall as me, but I wasn't happy about dancing with him, luckily I didn't have to as there were younger girls & older boys in the class. We learnt waltz, quickstep, my favourite dance, tango, foxtrot & jive. Once away from beginers, we had different classes with our own age groups. I think I got quite good at it. The only down side was when we went to the do's with our parents I had to dance with my brother.

I went along to some parties in the 60s where there was some jiving going on, but mostly we were spaced out.
