Dancers’ all speak the same language.
2008 October 26
One of the very best things about dancing, is that no matter where you go, you will find someone that speaks your language. Tonight I found myself in Tampa, getting ready to board a Carnival Cruise Ship, in the morning.
So naturally, being a dancer, I put “Dancing” in my google search engine. There were many choices, and after asking a few locals, I picked a place called the Dallas Bull. It was a country western bar about 10 miles from my hotel. I grabbed my dance shoes, and a cab, and hit the road.
Once inside, I put on my dance shoes, yes, shoes, not boots, and looked for the nearest cowboy. Once I located him, I walked up and asked him if he Two Stepped, he took my hand, led me to the dance floor and we were off! Around and around this HUGE wooden floor. Spinning, twirling and two stepping’ to the music. It was so much fun that I didn’t want the song to end.
Fortunately the DJ played one great song after another. Once you are recognized as a dancer, you will be kept busy all night. Seems that the “regulars” like to dance with someone new, too.
It is so much fun going to new places and meeting new people. Such a treat to experience new moves and styles. It’s like Christmas, you just never know what is in the box!
So, if you ever find yourself traveling and are looking for something to do, hit the nearest dance floor and you will have an instant bond and a whole bunch of new friends! You see, all dancers speak the same language!
It’s late and I must get to bed, but I wanted to share my night with all of you and say Thank You to all the great dancers in Tampa!
