we made it through to our second week of salsa without any injuries, spills, falls or cracks! WOOHOO! Dancing requires one to be safe, especially when dancing with a partner. we have learned to take responsibility not only for what we say when we are dancing, but also how our bodies move when we are dancing.
we, as a class, are more courageous, ready to take more risks and try new things with our salsa. after a class trip to Cuba, in Chestnut Hill, we discovered that salsa is fun and that there are many other people outside our small salsa class that are beginners too.
we learned to smile, enjoy the company of strangers and learn from those who have something to offer of themselves.
dancing is much more than moving your body to a beat. dance is, in a lot of ways, a metaphor for the ways in which we live our lives.
i hope to live mine like i dance - fearlessly, with fun, purpose and abandon!
