  • Our First Dance Lesson

    I love my Mr. Butterfly!

    Weeks ago, I asked told him to find us a dance studio to take lessons for our wedding.  He was very worried about the dancing, because he can’t dance, but he really wants to look good on the dance floor. 

    Anyway, he found us a dance instructor who was absolutely wonderful!  Mr. Butterfly likes her because she is calm, cool and collected.  I like her because she’s encouraging and organized.  Even though it was our first lesson, she already had goals set for each lesson.  This tells me that she is very experienced as a teacher and that she definitely knows what she is doing. 

    Our goals for the first lesson:  To learn our entrance, the swing basic step, lady’s turn, and rotation.  We are using Frank Sinatra’s “The Way You Look Tonight” as our first dance, so we could have used either the swing or the fox trot.  Mr. Butterfly thought we should start with the easier one, which surprisingly is the swing.

    I thought we did excellent on our first day!!  I can’t wait to learn more steps and moves!
