Dilemna

Most of the week was spent in dilemna at work place. I have to choose between two options. One in hand and other few feet away but steadily progressing towards me. It is a career related choice. I will post about it once i decide.

Also i joined a ball room dances class. Yesterday was the first lesson. The teacher is going to teach us basics of 8 dances (4 slow - tango , foxtrot , rumba and waltz and 4 fast ones). She taught us one step in all four slow ones yesterday. I don't know how much i will learn.

In tango the basic step is ,
left foot forward
right foot forward
left foot forward
right foot forward
left foot forward
right foot forward to the right
join the left foot with right
and then again from the beginning.

In foxtrot, the basic step is
left foot forward
right foot forward
left foot forward moving to the left
join right foot with the left
left foot backward
right foot backward
left foot backward moving to the left
join the right foot to the left
and then again from the beginning

In rumba, the basic step is a small square. It is
left foot forward
right foot forward moving to the right
join left foot with the right
right foot backward
left foot backward moving to the left
join the right foot with the left
and then again start

In Waltz,the basic step is a big square. It is
bend your knees and do a big left foot forward (fall)
right foot forward moving to the right
join the left foot with the right and also becoming straight (rise)
right foot backward (big one) bending your knees
left foot backward moving to the left
join the left with the right and also becoming straight
and square is complete and then again from the beginning

It will be hard to remember 4 dance steps at the same time.

We were asked to keep the hands in air as we will have to hold the partner in later sessions. But due to lack of practise, the hands were paining a lot.

The dance session was nice. I liked it.
