Shall we dance?

http://www.tangogravitas.com/

So, being the amazingly daring chick that I am, I agreed to tag along to a beginner's Argentinian Tango class. It wasn't quite the fiasco the hip-hop aerobics class was but amusing nonetheless.

When taking any sort of "partner" dance class, here are a few things I learned last night...

Bring:
-a member of the opposite sex (as a friend or more than, doesn't make a difference)
-cash
-a sense of humor

Wear:
-shoes that can be stepped on
-clothes that people can sweat on
-something you wouldn't be embarrassed to be photographed in

Leave:
-your ego
-preconceived notions
-any physical issues (trying to explain to the instructor that my shoulders are always up and that I'm working with my personal trainer to bring my body back into allignment, wasn't something he was interested in hearing)
