Jul. 28th, 2005 08:04 pmI just got back from 2 hours of free Indo-Jazz lessons at Stanley Park. It was so much fun but I was one of only 2 adult guys there. the rest were mainly teens. It was kinda awkward but I got comfortable really fast.
This was part of a series of free dance lessons held outdoors in the park. Previous dance instructions were on Scottish, folk, ballroom and belly dancing. I think the next one is Morris dancing...
I had been waiting for this one for a while. How can I pass up free Bollywood-style dance lessons performed to Bollywood music? I suprised myself by recognizing every song that was played! I was thrilled to see everyone dancing to Tumse Milke Dil Ka Hai Jo Haal. I have to admit that some of the moves were a bit tricky but I had a great time. I did take a break near the end and watched the rest of them dance. They actually looked pretty good. Farah Khan would have been proud of them, although I think there were a couple of ringers there....
I memorized the phone number the instructor gave the crowd, as he ran out of brochures. How I memorized those 7 digits, I'll never know. I might take the course when they start in September. I'll have to add that to the list along with a Hindi class.
... Morris dancing??!!
