After attending a dance class, we kept talking about going somewhere casual to dance. As it is, people talk about it, but nothing will come of it.
There was the opportunity in our village to take part in an informal "dance course for everyone". My enthusiasm was limited at first. In your own village - there are expectations from Crete and Pleti again...
Well, so we dared, and already on the first evening there was real joy. Right from the start, our Flying Teacher Cornelia understood how to practice the right mix of music and new dance steps. She gave us a lot of freedom, which gave rise to our joy in dancing. Here and there Cornelia improved our step combinations and showed little tricks on how to execute the sequences more elegantly in time. This in turn motivated them to practice even faster and more precise steps. And best of all: No further obligations. We were 5-7 couples who all just wanted to dance.
We let the evening fade away in an informal fun spirit once a week. Unfortunately, this casual dancing fell victim to the corona pandemic. But who knows, maybe there will be a revival during the coming winter months, which would make us very happy.
