mynxii and I ventured into unknown territory and were delighted to discover that you can have a lot of fun with French dance. We turned up, met L., our instructor for the next six weeks, then slid about on the newly treated wooden floors and admired the war paraphernalia (RSL Hall). The first dance was relatively simple except for the keeping in a circle, knowing which way the person behind you was facing and generally being graceful and coordinated. Henceforth to be known as 'The PonyGirl Dance' it looks like good skills practice.
The second was a lot more complex, it involves four people and the accompanying music is delightful1. It took us quite a few tries to get the pattern right but it was punctuated by laughter, enthusiasm and a lot of swapping sides. We had gender issues until we worked out who was playing which parts. I am, of course, being the man... again.
The third you do in a circle which sounds easy until you change directions, switch partners and do the leg thingy. I did manage a short duet with a newly discovered fellow Buffy lover.
