Back Home

I am back home and feeling just fine. Yesterday just showered, cleaned out the refrigerator and I rearranged a few things and rested. I had a very good night's sleep and ready to go this morning. I will get this out and then have breakfast.

Apparently social dancing is going on full blast on the island of Oahu From the news at Tripler Hospital, there are quite few military interested but seems to be mostly in Night Club social dance, which they seem to believe is different than the dancing done by our local social dancers. If they learn in classes at all it is a special dance and not not much of the universal moves of all the dancers.

One of the most basic being the rock step which is used in about 500 different current dances. The next of course is the chassé and fortunately most local social dancers are well aware of this. How about the Rumba? Cha Cha  Cha, Samba? And so on. The most interesting of all when you get into it is the cross body lead. Usually taught in Rumba, Mambo and Salsa on Oahu. Can be done in hundreds of dances.  In Waltz too? I see it about once a year and looks beautiful.
