Jive Talking

Went to my usual aerobics and toning class this morning.
Then a quick freshen up and a sandwich before we were on our way to Ilkley.
Rebecca had sent me a message this morning about a six week class to learn to jive.
Just missed out on any partner dancing as it all became solo in the 60s.

( If you were are the blipmeet at Haworth in May for the 40s weekend you will remember the dancers at the bandstand.
Well it was all part of that group.) 

When we got there we found out that this was the fourth week of the six week course and it would probably be better to start the new course in the new year, especially as we had no experience of ever dancing the jive.
I asked if we could just give it a go and they kindly said if we couldn’t keep up after ten minutes we could have our money back.
Well we lasted the hour,  picked up the key steps and a few moves.
So much so we are going back next week.
So proud of Mr P - he would be the first to admit he isn’t a confident dancer but we had a great time and he really enjoyed it.

Now just need to remember it all for next week, will be wearing out the kitchen floor.
