this was certainly the best workshop i've ever been to.
first thing this morning we did a bit of cha-cha--i had to warm up to it. without coffee, that footwork was a little tough. by the time we tried mombo i was totally awake and digging it. i got a little carried away--having way too much fun! but the salsa. that was a surprise. we spent a lot of time learning a choreography and i found a natural grove in the rhythm.
the funny thing is that i actually considered blowing off this session of the workshop. what was i thinking!?! when i get home, i think i'm going to explore more salsa... so watch out ladies and gentleman...
the second half of the workshop was scarier than any other part--even trying to learn the choreography. the second part was on facial expressions mostly--we did a variety of exercises to help us convey a "mood". since i'm the happy dancer, i had real challenges with things like sultry and mysterious. i just had could hardly control the giggly button. in the end, it was a pivotal part of the experience. i think i learned a lot.
now, i'm hanging with my buddies d and craig--the coolest couple in the whole world. we went out for dinner and had the best time. it's so nice to be in their company again. i've missed these guys!
