Dancing For 9 years and A new dance school

Dance again in our life

Dancing and Oh how happy We are for 9 years, but we made it and we are going to dance in about 5 months

58 trophies and 9 years later, I will be a ballroom dancer once again. There were two car accidents and lots of physical therapy and lots of thoughts swam in my head and I said "shall I try again, even at this senior age. "

I am in another county and in another state where I do not know any body dancing but I and we will try. I thought my husband when I approached him with this thought while he was a bit still a sleepy. Later on when we were washed up and were eating a light breakfast and he mumbled Ok. I thought oh my God, I must be so happy.

We had danced for 30 years, taking lessons, me competitive. I danced in about 8 competitions and won 58 trophies and I love them.When we moved to Northern Virginia, we knew hardly only about 10 folks.

Oh how I feel 10 feet tall and so beautiful and happy and we are going to be back to dancing.

Now we will start in March 2018 and it will be Crown Dance studio in Northern Virginia.The owner of the studio is Abraham and he will come to our house and give us 10 lessons so we can start again. I can hardly wait.
