Morgan le Faye asked:


I find dancing beautiful and I’m a bit jealous that I can’t really do it well. How do you feel about it?

    I think it is extremely beautiful, and romantic. I have always wanted to take lessons, and I will someday.

    Ballroom dancing is a beautiful activity and no more silly than basketball or football. It requires a lot of physical stamina and practice.

    Totally beautiful, unless I’m doing it. Then it looks rather silly

    Ballroom dancing is great….the stuff that is promoted as ballroom dancing on TV like “Dancing with the Stars” is a bit over the top though.

    It takes a while before you get really comfortable–but it’s really beautiful with the right partner. But you need a lead who is confident and who will make you feel beautiful and graceful.

    Ballroom dancing is beautiful. The dancers are so graceful - it’s like they just glide across the floor……………..

    Given that I compete in Ballroom for 5 years, practice 4-6 times a week and make my own costumes it is pretty clear that I live and breathe ballroom. I think it is beatiful and sometimes silly too (think Jive), but why not, we don’t have to be serious all the time.

    I started taking lessons 7 or 8 years ago to become competent as a social skill. Now I’ll go to competitions just to watch and I dance every opportunity I get. Completely hooked. Considering my other hobbies are hunting/shooting and military history, it’s a slightly different part of my personality.

    Sometimes I think the competitions (like some of the pro competitions they play on tv) are a bit corny and too showy for my taste, but real ballroom is totally romantic and simply one of the most beautiful types of dances to watch.
