Dance

The Dining Hall is the perfect place to take a break from your studies. Meet your fellow students or colleagues to chat about anything else the world has to offer. For the most part, any interest you want to share is fair game—just steer clear of contemporary politics.

Dance

Post by Lucius »

From the seventh art -- cinema -- back to the sixth! Dance is yet another thing I'm not good at, like at all, but I do love watching other people dance well.

There are so many forms of dance, from classical ballet to 'Hot to Go!' :| I've always been fascinated by modern and contemporary dance, perhaps it's because the old-school ballet, if great to look at (and made to look effortless... one of the greatest tricks ever played upon the public!), is too structured and technical -- not that one can't add lots of acrobatics to contemporary, but then there's crossing the line into gymnastics. Those pointe shoes look awfully silly to me as well -- I like women dancing barefoot, can't help myself. :)

Are our users good at social dancing? Have any of you suffered through a ballet school, perhaps? Or do you like to watch?

I have always been drawn to ball room and latin, with a strong affinity to Argentine Tango.
