huh! might have known you'd be in there first BC lol Vivienne Is this a ladies excuse me?

My dear BC the whole point of the Tango is to get close and personal not only do I have to clutch you close I also Have to throw you about a bit. Are you up for it? I do not wish to break anything. B

*throws the broom in the corner....Helllllooooo Man in Mask:-) I bet you do a mean Tango...Shall we have a little practice while there is nobody around?? Dont clutch me too tight, my bones are a bit suspect....lol BC

Well ladies....I am available but please don't all rush at once. I am extremely handsome, six foot two (without my cuban heels) and am very serious about my dancing. B.

Oh please may I join Chrissie? I love to dance and have been told I am a great mover...but that was 40 years ago...so have been practising with the broom, and have to say it is looking good!!! Cant wait to get to the Tango! lol BC XX

Please may I join? I should warn you I have two left feet and no rhythm at all. My OH thinks he can dance but he looks more like Andy Pandy than Patrick Swazey! Beryl

Val - It really wouldn't matter for basics but the theory behind starting left foot back is for when you are more advanced. Then, you would be more likely to start with a natural turn - hence, left foot back. p.s. WHAT am I saying - this is only a fun thread LOL:)))) Really must go now:)

I'm sure we always dance a waltz by lady starting from her right foot back, man left foot forward. Val

Chrissie, I do that if I've had a few drinks but end up with tears rolling down my cheeks cos he's not here. Jess, my friend had trouble remembering so used to say knife or fork instead! lol Jenny, If you get any spares, one I could put in the cupboard after class would be good. lol Vivienne

We shall get to those eventually Jenny - stop being so impatient. Don't forget we have some beginners in the class LOL:))))))))))))))))))))))))

Goodnes know what happened to my post, it hung in cyber space for a few mins. Think I know the basic's steps, need to polish up on my Reverse and Natural turns. *Jenny now practices with the mop as she cleans kitchen floor. * Jenny

LOL Jenny. I'm off out now - it will be interesting to see how many replies you have when I get back:))))))))))))))))) Oh, you forgot to mention handsome:))))

You'll have to pretend Vivienne. Who knows, we might even persuade one of the gentlemen to join:)))) Jess - Come on girl, try harder, you CAN do it LOL:))))

thats too hard, i dont know my left from my right and cant count to 3.... Will practice in the street , cos that long and straight to wont have to do corners as well Jess x

Nice one Chrissie but no fun without a man Vivienne

After reading Mandy’s last reply to my thread last night, I have decided to conduct classes for anyone who would like them:))) Basic Waltz Steps The lady moves back with her left foot, then brings the right foot to the side, a comfortable distance away from the left *no Mandy-not up in the air*, then closes the left foot to the right. The man does the same thing in reverse. Count 1 – 2 - 3 Footwork Man – Heel, toe, toe. Woman – down, toe, toe. Right girls, I am off out for the day and I expect you all to be foot perfect by the time I return. Next time, we shall learn how to turn corners *just in case you happen to be in a square or oblong room*. ROFLMHO:))))))))))))))) Chrissie x
