11 takeaways from my first tango lesson
I have almost no experience when it comes to dancing. I tried solo jazz once and now I tried this. I went with my girlfriend. Or rather, my girlfriend brought me :)
Preview
1. I felt quite unskilled
2. My girlfriend and I kept goofing around
3. A very sweet woman translated for us
The class was in Italian.
4. I kept cracking jokes when she explained things, probably because I do that when I'm out of my comfort zone
5. I liked the class
6. It wasn't too challenging for a first time
I'm pretty sure I was rather bad at it, but hey I'm learning something new.
7. Some of it sounded a bit silly to me
The whole thing about how tango is like life, it's about communication, etc. I'm not sure I really get this sort of stuff.
8. I liked the music!
9. The thought of getting good at it is appealing
10. Changing partners was okay
This may sound silly, but my girlfriend and I would rather just stick together. Changing dance partners was part of it though, and it was fine, not too awkward.
11. It was a nice way to meet new people
We may have made a friend.
