Dancenergy

And one and two and cha-​cha-​cha… Where did my Friday night take me? Why, to cha cha lessons! Don’t ask me why, but I was expecting a bit of a rundown dance facility in the basement of some weird building out in the NE. Instead, I walked into a very new looking and well cared for space with one larger and one smaller room.
Having never before been to Dancenergy, it was a positive experience. Registration was easy peazy at the front desk… name, address, phone number, etc. and then paying for the drop in class ($ 12.60 including GST) and then over to the tables to wait for the instructor to start things off.
Thank goodness everybody else there was as much as a beginner as I was! The instructor took us through step by step… starting with the very basic cha cha steps and then adding on a little bit more as we went. Everyone was lined up to face one another, guys on one side and ladies on the other. There were more guys than gals, so we just followed along with the steps each time we didn’t have a partner.
The instructor was easy going, very clear and cracked a few jokes to keep us all at ease. I dragged along one of my friends with me… and even she admitted she had a great time when prior to going she was all: «I’ve got to remind myself to not let you take me to things I don’t want to go to.»
The beginner drop in lessons happen every Friday at 8. You may very well find me back here soon!
