well...i figure, ya gotta decide what you want your life to be and just keep aligning with that.

it's over 3 years since my last lesson...3 years this august will be the last time i took hold for either standard or latin...but still, somehow, i know i'm progressing & developing in the direction i want, and that dance will come back into focus at the right time.

i'm building my way back at the mo'...

and...thanks for your kind words, elise. Smiley

they did move for sure - but 'started' would probably be a little inaccurate...

I just saw a great quote on FB: "success is when you go from one failure to another failure".  Winston Churchill.  I think that just about sums it up!  

I think the key is to not get discouraged by failure, its just another corner along the golden path.

due to time contrainst and travelling have not have had the time to practice, but what I am doing is making sure that when i walk that my posture is good and I try to shape where every possible. Improving the upper body while sitting in the chair.
