Salsa night 3
Hip hip hooray! Theres something new at salsa, it’s a new guy. And he’s a bit of a hotty too, fantastic. I was thrilled, yes thrilled, to meet the new guy. First of all because we have a dire need for men at salsa, and secondly it takes the heat off me for being a newby, now I am no longer the only glaringly obvious beginner. And I didn’t waste any time in talking to this new and please keep coming to salsa guy.
Now don’t get me wrong, I am not going to salsa to pick up men. I just want some hotties to dance with, thats all. Is that so much to ask? Theres plenty of hot chicks there waiting to be danced with, believe me. It would just be nice if it wasn’t so much of a titty fest, you know?
Back to the new guy though, I was talking to him afterwards because we both stayed behind to watch the advanced class, and he said the most wonderful words which were music to my ears..’I should bring some of my mates along aye, they would love this’. Stay calm Maz, stay calm..yes he did say he has friends… ‘Yes you should do that, do you drink? Yes? Lets go to the pub..’
Now I am not a total booze hag, we did actually exchange our life stories before we headed off for a drink with the rest of the group, thats another great thing about going to salsa. It’s very sociable, everyone hangs out for a while afterwards and gets on really well. But I am wondering if my disappointment in dancing with women has been showing, because our salsa instructor made a comment that I would be much happier if I had more men to dance with, yer not kidding! Although I do have a fantastic time regardless, plenty of laughing going on, but yes, partners of the men variety would be fantastic.
But back to the salsa lesson, having missed last week I was eager to get in there and test out my haven’t used them for a week moves, and yup thery’e still there. And I didn’t hide out in the back row this time either, my feet and ribs-yes it’s all in the ribs they tell me-are doing what they’re supposed to be doing and I have found rhythm at last. Well truth be told the new music had a man counting throughout.. ‘one two three..five six seven’ so much easier when someone is counting!
I can now do twirls under the mans arm, long walky through things, and holdy hands pushing against each other kind of things. Oh and twirling on the spot things too, easy once you know exactly where to put that left foot. That along with the basic steps and the butt shaking, I think I am getting the hang of this. When I can do a complete dance then I will consider the all important shoe factor, will keep you posted Gem.
