Sing Sing Sing!
On Tuesday I went out to a Swing dance lesson with T. T has been dancing for a little over a decade and (obviously) enjoys it greatly. I on the other hand have never been a dancer. Partially this is because I used to be very overweight. Now that I'm at a more normal weight I still have body image 'issues' that have never made me very interested in doing that sort of group activity.
T has been interested (but not obnoxiously so) in me learning to dance for most of that time. I recently decided I might theoretically be interested in that sort of tom-foolery and before I knew it we were enrolled in a five week class. It was the beginners 6 count Swing class nearby in Capitol Hill.
I'm not uncoordinated (though I'll never be an Olympic gymnast), so I didn't have too much trouble doing the basics. I did decide that I enjoyed it. With the disclaimer that while it was fun, it wasn't my kind of fun (yet). Time will tell.
