Because I do not have a partner (now), it is difficult specially there are so many single ladies.

Unless you are really keen on dancing, population on tea dancers average ages are, I guess, 75~80, you would get shocked if you enter the room. Even I would feel rather young among them. :joker:

It would be lovely to be able to learn dancing from Strictly dancers.

..I wouldn't really mind them being older Sooty, I love being around older people and listening to them and I bet there are some really lovely dancers and it must be such a nostalgic atmosphere...awww, so your husband danced as well... how long were you married Sooty..?..

I was married for nearly 35 years till he passed away in Dec 2010.

Now I am learning "sequence dancing", lead steps (male steps). This is a sort of folk dancing if you can walk, you can dance, that type, quite popular even dancers are lot older than ballroom dancers as they are so easy. They keep repeating same steps. But I love it.
As there are so many ladies, not enough gentlemen, so I tend to take male part.

Next sequence is called "Tango Serida". This is a video I found on youtube, some group of people.

If you dance this "Tango Serida" properly, it will be like this, also I found in Youtube. I would love to dance like them.

Did you notice, Ammi? This couple was dancing exactly the same steps with other video, elderly people were dancing.
Aww bless elderly dancers .:hug:

I wish I could dance like the lady with the blue dress!

I have been to Salsa class once with my friend some years ago, but I preferred ballroom (Latin - rumba, cha cha, jive, samba) My friend still goes to the class though.
