I LOVE TO DANCE

My blog has been about things I enjoy. I have shared my love of travel and of water. I also have another love and that is DANCING.
When I was growing up, many of the girls in our town took dancing lessons. I could not because of my family financial situation. I remember a friend who took Ballet lessons, and when she outgrew her hard toe ballet slippers, she gave them to me. I used to practice dancing around with those sllipers until I could dance on my toes. Later in life, I was able to take some free lessons at the church or in the community. Even though I decided that ballet was not for me, it got me hooked. I went on to learn different ballroom dances, swing, Cha Cha, tap and square dancing. All great fun!
When I was over 65, I joined a dance class called “Jeans Golden Girls”, this was a performing group of women over the age of 50. We would perform for different organizations. Typically we would perform during haltime of a college basketball game. We started out linedancing then progressed to other styles such as Cha Cha, Western. Tap, and even Hawaiian. As we became more well known, we were asked to perform at parades, clubs, and schools all over Utah. We even went to Idaho and Hawaii.
It was a lot of fun dancing together and was very ADDICTIVE, especially when the young people would clap and scream their approval as they watched “The Old Ladies” moving together in perfect harmony( most of the time anyway!)
So you see you can do more than enjoy the water at Avalons Bay, you can dance too! You may also check out some great money making opportunities here: www.avalonsbay.com I hope you enjoy Life!
